Regency Duchess's Awakening

The Shy Duchess

With her golden hair and dazzling emerald eyes, Lady Emily Carroll should have her pick of suitors. Instead, her crippling shyness has earned her the nickname "Ice Princess." Nicholas, Duke of Manning, isn't looking for a bride, but he won't pass up a stolen kiss at a masked ball. With her blushes hidden, Emily lets her inhibitions go. Only to find herself betrothed! Now it's her wedding night, and her new husband seems determined to thaw his Ice Princess and reveal her every secret...

To Kiss a Count

Leaving exotic Sicily behind, and with it her heart, Thalia Chase returns to England to visit her sister -- and to try and forget the enigmatic Italian Count di Fabrizzi. She’s shocked to suddenly see him in Bath -- and in the company of a suspected thief! Marco, Count di Fabrizzi, is on a dangerous mission and doesn’t need the beautiful Lady Chase hindering his progress.
