First comes love, then comes marriage—or is it the other way around? Lucia is an Italian spitfire with big dreams like her billionaire grandfather. But she wants to become a top tier fashion designer, not the heir to the family business in Italy. Now is her only chance to forge her own path. And what better place to start than in New York City? But working behind a bar doesn’t exactly pay the rent. Her trust fund would come in handy, but she needs to get married first. Luckily, she may have found the perfect husband candidate in her co-worker, who just happens to be the most charismatic and devastatingly gorgeous man she’s ever met . . . There’s more to Ryan’s charming smile than meets the eye—he’s out for revenge and working for his enemy is his best bet at getting it. When Lucia comes to him with her crazy plan, he sees a perfect opportunity to make his move. But doing that could mean hurting his new wife. They say nothing’s sweeter than revenge—but “they” never met a woman like Lucia . . .

Friends at seven, lovers at seventeen, Katherine and Jack were meant to be together. But when a tragic mistake results in marriage to the wrong man for Katherine, a heartbroken Jack heads to foreign lands to make his fortune. Now Jack is returning and Katherine is a widow, eagerly awaiting the only man she's ever loved. Experience has taught her to value even more his qualities of honour and bravery, while his humour and playfulness are ever on her mind, a counterpoint to her years of living with a humourless husband. But to Katherine's dismay, she learns that Jack is returning with his betrothed, a woman he agreed to marry abroad. Katherine knows Jack can't possibly love this woman as he'd loved her. She also knows she has the power to win him back. But Jack has equally compelling reasons for going forward with the betrothal he contracted in the West Indies. Will love or honour prevail? This is Book 4 of the Scandalous Miss Brightwells series though it can be read as a standalone. What readers are saying: "This book kept me hanging until the very last page... but the agony of not knowing the twists and turns until they were on me made it the most splendid adventure." "Great plot and characters which will keep you turning pages. Hope there are more to come." If you love your romance sprinkled with scandal, sizzle and with a wicked twist at the end, you'll love The Accidental Elopement.
