Daughters of the Gentry Series
Three remarkable women. Three unexpected romances. One captivating collection of Regency romance tales filled with wit, charm, and the undeniable pull of love. From friendships that blossom into something deeper to unexpected entanglements that defy society's expectations, these heroines must navigate duty, family, and the stirrings of their own hearts in this delightful trilogy.
A Whimsical Notion
Honoria Bassett prides herself on running an impeccable household, so she can't help but be frustrated by Philip Townsend's indifference to his own estate's disrepair. If only he would apply himself! But Philip is too consumed with turning a profit to focus on domestic concerns-or to entertain thoughts of marriage, especially when Honoria, the most obvious choice, is off-limits due to a longstanding family feud. Yet as life's challenges push them together, friendship turns to something more. Can they find a way to defy the past and convince Honoria's father that love is worth the risk?
A Stroke of Good Fortune
Arabella Northwick has never known true love-not from her father, nor from her late husband-but she is determined to build a better life for herself and her young son. However, her cruel brother-in-law is set on keeping her under his control, threatening to take away everything she holds dear if she dares to seek happiness elsewhere. Theo Dawson, heir to his family's textile mill, never expected to fall so deeply for the beautiful widow, but with duty pressing in on both of them, their love seems impossible. With the odds stacked against them, only a stroke of good fortune can bring them together.
A Presumptuous Hope
Christine Grey is perfectly content with her quiet life in the countryside, free from the expectations of marriage. Sir Alexander Thorne, the new master of Gracefield Park, is determined to prove himself as a worthy country gentleman-but finds his most difficult challenge in his spirited neighbor. Their differences are undeniable, but well-meaning friends are determined to match them. When an unexpected scandal forces them into marriage, both resist the idea of love, even as their growing connection becomes impossible to ignore. Can Christine and Alexander turn their reluctant union into a love that lasts?
Lose yourself in the romance, wit, and charm of Daughters of the Gentry, where love finds a way-even when it seems most unlikely.
