A Season with Her Forbidden Earl

A fun foray into the London Season

Determined to stay a spinster

For her second Season!

When an unexpected windfall gives Lady Margaret the chance for another Season, she relishes the opportunity to see her friends again, including Julian Randall, Earl of Atherton. She has no need to find a husband, and widower Julian has sworn off the marriage mart, so escorting each other is the perfect platonic arrangement. Until a new, exhilarating attraction simmers between them—one this respectable spinster is forbidden from indulging in…isn’t she?

SOLDIERS TO HEIRS

Three soldiers who band together after saving each other’s lives during the storming of Badajoz expect to live quiet lives back in England if they survive the war. Instead, each finds himself unexpectedly heir to a title, with the duties, responsibilities—and problems that entails.

BOOK ONE: THE UNEXPECTED DUKE

Once the war against Napoleon was won, Lieutenant Hartley Charles Edmenton of the 1st (Royal) Dragoons expected to return to his family’s small manor in Scotland…until the unexpected death of his cousin turns him into the new Duke of Fenniston. Having been snubbed and belittled by his late uncle’s family for his mother’s Scots heritage, the last thing Hart wants is to become an English lord…but the duty is inescapable. Upon his reluctant arrival at Steynling Cross, he immediately crosses swords with Mrs. Claire Hambleden, sister of the widowed Duchess, who has been supervising the estate for her ailing sister.

The battle-worn lieutenant who arrives to take the place of the elegant, mercurial former duke seems just as unsuitable and unprepared for the high rank that has fallen upon him as Claire feared. But it’s her duty to the estate, her sister and the man she once secretly loved to turn his successor into a proper duke—and find him a proper duchess. If only a most inconvenient attraction didn’t complicate the process for both of them…

BOOK TWO: RAFE’S STORY

When his older brother’s cold turned into a fatal inflammation of the lungs, Lieutenant Rafe Tynesley of the 16th Queens Light Dragoons found himself summoned home as the next Earl of Thornwaite. Reluctantly leaving the army with the war not yet won, he finds the estate in a shambles, his ill brother having apparently neglected even essential tasks for months. One dangling loose end is the status of his late brother’s long-time fiancé, whom Rafe has known since childhood. He also knows that having waited for years to wed his brother, Juliana’s now rather advanced age and small dowry render her prospects of making another match very slim. Not a believer in love, and not wanting Juliana to end up a governess or companion, Rafe thinks a marriage of convenience between two old friends will be a good solution for them both.

Juliana Waverton realizes her best chance for a decent future away from her disdainful family would be to marry Rafe. But would it mean salvation or heartache to wed the man she’s secretly loved for years, who sees her only as a friend?

BOOK THREE: CHARLES’S STORY

An orphan brought up by a gentleman’s family, Lieutenant Charles Marsden of Dunbar’s Dragoons returns to England after Waterloo, uncertain what he will do next. He could never have expected to be sought out by an aunt he never knew he had and learn that her sister was his real mother, who secretly wed the son of the family for whom she served as governess. With his aunt having proven Charles is the baron’s legitimate heir, he is now Lord Richland—and is being pushed to enter Society by his triumphant aunt.

His aunt has also chosen a prospective bride--Emma Wellingford, younger sister of her good friend Sarah Wellingford. But despite an immediate attraction, neither the reluctant baron nor the free-spirited Emma are much interested in marriage. But love might have other plans…

Works in Progress

Once she gets approval for the rewrites on THE UNEXPECTED DUKE, Julia will begin work on the story of Rafe Tynesley, who is introduced in Hart’s story when he pays a visit to his friend—and offers some advice on his relationship with Claire.
