"Lady Emily Marlow es guapa, independiente y virtuosa. Sorda desde la niñez, agradece los esfuerzos de su familia para alimentar su espíritu, pero el hombre que han elegido para que sea su prometido jamás podrá satisfacerla. El único hombre que Emily ha deseado en la vida es el valiente e intrépido lord Ashley Kendrick. El amor de su infancia nutrió sus fantasías y juró que jamás la olvidaría... aunque la dejó para marcharse a la India en busca de una nueva vida y un nuevo amor. Siete años y muchos sueños después, Ashley regresa como un desconsolado viudo a Bowden Abbey y vuelve a reunirse con Emily, fiel a su promesa. Sin embargo, su desconsiderada proposición matrimonial le provoca un inesperado conflicto. Aunque la llama de la pasión sigue viva en su interior, Emily teme que lo ha motivado el deber, no el amor. ¿Y qué puede hacer ella con esos siete años perdidos, cargados de secretos tan oscuros que Ashley se niega a compartirlos? Para Emily, el único y gran amor de su vida se convierte en un amor por el que merece la pena luchar, en un amor de sorprendentes revelaciones y segundas oportunidades, y en un amor, como una melodía, demasiado hermoso para describirlo con palabras..."--

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Mary Balogh presents two of her classic Regency-era romances—seductive tales of ladies who are running away from love . . . and rogues who enjoy the chase. A COUNTERFEIT BETROTHAL Lady Sophia Bryant has no intention of marrying anytime soon. Her one desire is to reunite her parents, who have been estranged for fourteen years. Surely, if she happens to announce her betrothal—even a false one—they will be forced to see each other. Devilishly handsome Lord Francis Sutton seems perfect for such deceit, always agreeable to games of passion in which he has nothing to lose. The trap is set—if only Lady Sophia can keep her foolish heart from falling prey to her brilliant snares. THE NOTORIOUS RAKE Lord Edmund Waite is everything that Lady Mary Gregg despises: lewd, lascivious, mocking—the most incorrigible and successful rogue around. A bluestocking like her would never tempt a man whose taste runs to pretty playthings—so Mary is startled to find herself the object of Lord Edmund’s desires. Even more surprising is her reaction to his shocking advances. She may be a lady, but this man knows so well how to make her feel like a woman.

For two people determined to be free, it's the perfect plan...until passion blindsides them both.

In two classic tales of Regency-era romance from New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh, the vagaries of love have a way of challenging the most convenient arrangements. THE TEMPORARY WIFE Miss Charity Duncan has no illusions about Lord Anthony Earheart’s proposal. The arrogant aristocrat has made it painfully clear what he wants: a wife who will enrage the father he despises and then disappear from his life. In exchange, Charity’s family will receive the money they desperately need. But after Charity agrees to this mockery of matrimony, she soon discovers a startling fact: She has fallen for Anthony, and breaking their marriage vows may also break her heart. A PROMISE OF SPRING Grace Howard has every reason to be devoted to Sir Peregrine Lampman. After all, the gallant gentleman rescued her from poverty by making her his bride. Even more nobly, he did not withdraw his affection after she confessed to a youthful folly that had compromised her virtue. But Grace did not tell the whole truth about the handsome lord who betrayed her—and now the one thing she’s kept from Perry threatens to destroy her last chance at true love.

A love that cannot be bought or sold proves to be the greatest gift of all, in this heartwarming classic that demonstrates once again why New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh is among the most celebrated authors of historical romance. Weddings are supposed to be joyous occasions—especially when a couple seems as well matched as Randolph Pierce, Earl of Falloden, and his bride-to-be, Eleanor Transome. Ellie brings to the marriage a vast dowry, while Falloden, though distant, is handsome, tremendously desirable, and possessed of a title most young ladies can only dream of sharing. Yet Ellie is not most young ladies. She knows that she must honor her dear father’s dying wish for her to wed the proud earl, but she dreads a lifetime in a union without love—and how can Falloden claim to love her when he married her only for her fortune? As Christmas descends upon the Falloden manor, the warmth of the season may yet melt away the trappings of duty and wealth, leaving behind only a man and a woman destined for each other’s arms.
