Description:
Friend or Lover?
--
Lady Mary Haviland knew better than to think she ever would wed. No gentleman would woo a woman as long on the shelf or as plain as she was. In fact, her lack of the usual enticements made it easy for her to develop uncomplicated friendships, even with the most dangerous of rakes.

Mary could laugh, then, at the rumors about her and the Marquess of Pemerton. Why would the most irresistible lord in London want her as anything more than a friend? What could she offer him that a legion of beauties did not already freely give this legendary rake? How could anyone guess his hold on her heart, when she kept her feelings hidden so well? But all her questions faded before the greatest question of all--when he asked her to be his bride. Now Mary faced the peril of the impossible dream coming terrifyingly true....

The Captive Rake
--
Meg Ashburton was a disaster her first Season in London, a tall and awkward ugly duckling out of her depth in the social swim. Her only moment of delight was a brief dance in the arms of the dazzling Viscount Sedgewick, the most irresistible rake in the realm.

Since then Meg had blossomed into a regal beauty. In an even more startling turnabout, the superb Sedgewick now lay at her mercy. The libertine lord was bedbound in Meg's country manor, recovering from an accidental injury. Meg could revel in his captivating company, without the chance of his walking away as he had done before.

Should she surrender her honor to this man who offered her everything but marriage? Or should she keep her precious virtue, and lose the man who already had walked away with her heart?
