~Even a pragmatist wants a prince.~
Mary Lovelock makes her debut, and every bachelor in London wants a dance with the rich beauty. But how can she know if a suitor is grasping or genuine?
David Vaughan, the extremely proper Viscount Tregaron, wants a wife with blood so blue, it’s indigo. It is unforgivably disappointing that the most remarkable of the Season’s debutantes is Mary Lovelock, a common heiress.
When his rogue brother lays a despicable challenge before him—which one of them will bed Mary first—the viscount is compelled to act as Mary’s protector. But will he be willing to protect the lovely Mary from himself?
When Ardor Blooms is the prequel novella (book zero) of the steamy Regency romance series The Lovelocks of London. However, it can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story. Meet Harry, Catherine, and Arabella Lovelock before they start their own love stories.
An exclusive, only available to newsletter subscribers.
TROPES: haughty/starchy noble MMC with a limp, heiress FMC, marriage market/balls.

CONVERGENCE OF DESIRE
An insatiable rake falls for an eccentric genius. Too bad she’s his innocent bride and he has vowed never to touch her.
Harriet “Harry” Lovelock lives a life of the mind. She knows she can prove a theorem that has befuddled male mathematicians for two centuries. But her stepmother wants her married and the swirl of the London Season saps Harry’s energy and distracts her from her work. She has to put an end to the tedium of balls. Now. Full stop.
Thomas Drake, the Earl Drake, is devoted to the pleasures of the flesh, but he wrestles with his own demons and unsolvable problems. He needs to marry wealth—but could he ever be satisfied by just one woman?
She can spend all her time on her proof. He can have any woman he wants, except her.
Their marriage of convenience could prove to be the perfect partnership—as long as love never enters the equation.

CLANDESTINE PASSION
Age and rank divide them. She will not face her weakness. He will not embrace his strength. Never have two people needed each other more.
Wealthy widow Catherine Lovelock thinks she will never love again. And then she meets James Cavendish, Marquess of Daventry. A handsome, gray-eyed souse of a rake—and seventeen years her junior. He couldn’t possibly be interested in bedding her . . . or could he?
James Cavendish, heir apparent to the Duke of Middlewich, has finally found a way he can serve his country and his future king. But to do so, he must create a web of lies and destroy his own reputation. And then he meets the one woman who can unmask him.
For too long, Catherine and James have both played roles. She, the good mother and wife. He, the dissolute rake.
The truth will come out when the clothes come off.

Her wealth and beauty made him sure she was beyond his reach. Dr. Alasdair Andrews, lonely and longing for Arabella, must bring her home to her family.

Sometimes your second chance is your destiny.
