She had to protect Almira from the seductions of a city rife with sophisticated sin... from the intrigues of an aunt using Almira's beauty for her own profit... from Almira's own weakness in the face of folly. But when she learned Almira was to be safely wed to the superbly suitable Justin Ferrington, Corinna did not feel the proper relief. For she was most improperly drawn to this handsome lord -- and had to choose between betraying her trust or breaking her heart... Book‎

When a behest adds a small property to his vast holdings, one that houses a modest flower business known as The Rarest Blooms, Castleford sees little to interest him...until he lays eyes on its owner. Daphne Joyes is coolly mysterious, exquisitely beautiful, and utterly scathing toward a man of Castleford's stamp-in short, an object worthy of his most calculated seduction. Daphne has no reason to entertain Castleford's outrageous advances, and every reason to keep him as far away as possible from her eclectic household. Not only has she been sheltering young ladies who have been victims of misfortune, but she has her own closely guarded secrets. Then Daphne makes a discovery that changes everything. She and Castleford have one thing in common: a profound hatred for the Duke of Becksbridge, who just happens to be Castleford's relative. Never before were two people less likely to form an alliance-or to fall in love... Book‎
