Duke of Danby: Halliday Sisters

Since her father's untimely death, Felicity Halliday has relied on the medical knowledge learned at his side to treat London's most disreputable in order to support her family. Life has been hard, but everything changes the night she is snatched from an alley behind a theatre, tossed into a nobleman's carriage, and receives an offer she cannot afford to refuse. It has been less than a fortnight since Julian Beckford returned to London after a sojourn in India, and he's already up to his top-boots in one of his cousin's mad schemes. When his foolish cousin decides to engage an actress to play his betrothed over the holidays at Danby Castle, Julian becomes an unwilling party to the lady's abduction. Along their journey to Yorkshire, Julian makes a stunning discovery about his cousin's pretend fiancée...and finds it's possible to love Twice Upon a Time. Enter the world of Danby Castle and fall in love with this charming family today!

Colin MacBride, Earl of Blackwood, is well aware that only a fool would answer the Duke of Danby's summons. But with many mouths to feed, poor fields, and a failing flock that might not survive winter, he sets aside a decades' old feud with his neighbor and calls on him to make a proposition. If Blackwood sheep are allowed to winter on the duke's land, Colin will share the profits when they are sheared in the spring. Naturally, the duke has a better idea, and it involves a lovely young lady who is dear to his heart. Colin can make use of the duke's land if he agrees to hire Meredith Halliday to be his nieces' governess and convince her to quit before the man the duke has chosen for her to marry arrives in Yorkshire. Oh, and if Colin would flirt with her a bit to build her confidence, that would be splendid, indeed. Appalled to be labeled a Lothario for hire, Colin storms from the duke's study and straight into the old curmudgeon's trap-and she is every bit as beautiful and charming as promised.
