A hellion breaks all the rules and does what she pleases. Dare to follow the hellions in these EIGHT stories and experience the passion of a midnight kiss. Bewitching the Earl by Lauren Smith: Daphne Westfall is cast out of her home after her father is arrested for embezzlement. Surviving on scraps while sleeping on the streets of London in the cold, she's offered a chance to be saved if she can agree to a marriage auction. When she's bought by a fierce Scottish Earl and swept away to the highlands she can't help but wonder if love is possible between them or if her father's past will destroy her one chance at happiness. Infinitely My Marquess by Dawn Brower: The Marquess of Cinderbury and Lady Annalise Palmer are two lost souls in search of salvation. Together they can help each other heal, if they can believe in love, and in each other long enough to escape the torment they've both suffered; as well as, uncover an unimaginable devotion. Believe in Love by Amanda Mariel: Lady Brooke Linwood never could have guessed what would happen after she saved the Earl of Templeton from a cutthroat in the ally behind Fortunas Parlor. Now the devilishly handsome earl won't leave her alone, and with each moment they spend together Booke's determination to resist him slips a little more. Dare she believe in love, or is it only her body at stake? The Lady Loves A Scandal by Christina McKnight: Many years ago, Gideon Lyndon, Viscount Galway, made a grave mistake. On the verge of rectifying this misdeed, he finds himself faced with his greatest challenge yet: winning back the woman he has loved since the moment he met her. But after a year of silence, convincing his headstrong paramour Sybil Anson to take him back will not be easy. Especially since he can't even explain why he left—not if he wants to keep her safe. The Hellion and the Highwayman by Rebecca Lovell: Bluestocking Emma Sellars wants to be a doctor, but her parents would rather see her as a bride. Lord Thomas Belmont's interest lies not in the Season but in the pockets of the affluent people coming in on the London highways. A chance meeting with Emma in a bookstore makes him wonder whether he can trade his pistol for a wedding band, but the choice between love and duty is harder than he ever thought possible. Landing a Laird by Jane Charles: Heiress Lady Moira Kirkwood will do anything it takes to marry a laird to take her north - far, far away from London and her domineering mother.* One penniless gentleman after another begs Gideon Baxter, Viscount Ainsely, for his assistance in wooing Lady Moira. Unfortunately, Gideon would like to woo the charming lady himself. If only she cared more for him than for the location of his estate, he'd could be assured of where her true feelings lie. Stolen Kiss by Janis Susan May : Wealthy merchant and new baronet Sir Emmanuel Ferrours is determined his son Adam will marry into the aristocracy or be disinherited. He has arranged a marriage with Amelia, daughter of the gambling mad and nearly bankrupt Earl of Radston. She is boring and colorless and supremely uninteresting to Adam, but he knows his duty and accepts it... at least until he meets the brigand who held him up and discovers that she is a female named Leah. After she steals a kiss from him Adam's heart is lost and he realizes what he wants most in the world – but there is his father and the Earl's daughter with whom he must deal if he is to gain his heart's desire.
