He can have any woman in London—except the one he wants.
A dashing rake must prove he has changed to win his one true love from the arms of another, in this witty new Regency romance.
Clarissa Studley wishes to marry, and yearns to be loved for more than just her fortune. She has two firm rules: no rakes and no fortune-hunters — her father was both, and she’ll never forget the misery he caused.
So, when Race, Lord Randall, starts to pay Clarissa attention, she knows she mustn’t give in to him. Attractive and charming as he is, Race’s reputation precedes him. But for the first time in his life, Race is truly in love, and when a rival for Clarissa’s affections appears, he must
convince Clarissa to trust him. Can a rake really change? And can Clarissa put aside her unhappy past and risk her heart on a rake?
Some Reviews:
“Anne Gracie writes such tender romance, and this book is a wonderfully lush pleasure to read. And I note there’s to be one more in this series, someone who enters this book in a complete surprise! Oh my, the anticipation. Bring it on.” Reviewed by Malvina.
“What a charming read this was! I hadn’t read anything by Anne Gracie previously and the first couple of chapters moved a bit slowly. I quickly came to realize, however, that Gracie’s writing had drawn me in and her characters had won me over. Clarissa wants to find a life partner, but is certain that Lord Race “Rake” Randall can’t possibly be the one for her. Race is determined to show her that he is committed to courting her. The tension grew throughout the story and Gracie did a wonderful job pacing it all delightfully. I loved this one and read it in one sitting!” Full review here.
The Laird's Bride
The Laird's Bride - a Romantic Scottish Marriage of Convenience story.
A hot-headed vow to marry the first woman he sees, a meeting in a muddy bog, a hasty marriage between strangers, and a bride who demands to be courted — after the wedding.
In order to take his place as laird before his trustee uncle bankrupts the clan buying fripperies, Cameron Fraser vows to marry the first woman he meets — and he always keeps his vows. So even though the first woman he meets seems totally unsuitable, he marries her anyway.
In the gamble of her life, shepherdess Jeannie McLeay agrees to marry this grim-faced, handsome stranger. She comes to her marriage with nothing but dreams and a heart full of hope. But there’s more to Jeannie than meets the eye, and Cameron soon learns that the young woman he married so impulsively is no pushover. Confident as he might be about women, Cameron still has a lot to learn.
With a marriage made for purely financial reasons, can these two very different strangers ever find love?
