Leo Drake, the “Mad Monk of Monkcrest,” is notoriously eccentric and unquestionably reclusive. But he is also a noted antiquities expert, which is why Beatrice Poole has demanded his reluctant assistance. The freethinking authoress of “horrid novels,” Beatrice is searching for the Forbidden Rings of Aphrodite, a mythic treasure she suspects played a role in her uncle's death. Beatrice finds Leo every bit as fascinating as one of the heroes in her novels—and she's convinced he's the only one who can help her. But after only five minutes in her company, Leo is sure he's never met a woman more infuriating . . . and more likely to rescue him from boredom. Yet the alliance may well prove to be the biggest mistake of their lives. For a villain lurks in London, waiting for the pair to unearth the Forbidden Rings—knowing that when they do, that day will be their last. . . . Praise for With This Ring “If you start an Amanda Quick book in the late afternoon, you'll probably spend the night with it.”—The Denver Post “[Amanda Quick is] an exceptional storyteller.”—Daily News of Los Angeles

From bestselling author Celeste Bradley comes With This Ring, a delightful tale about the lengths one woman will go to marry-at all costs... THE RULES OF ENGAGEMENT Elektra Worthington is the lovely middle daughter of the eccentric, impoverished Worthington family. Her beauty means nothing to her except as her currency to return the Worthington name to its former glory of status, riches, and dominance in the ballrooms of Regency England. To this end, she will stop at nothing-even if she must kidnap a rich lord in the process. If this lucky gentleman is just returning from a long absence and knows nothing of the Worthington reputation, well, a girl shouldn't look a gift lord in the mouth...right? THE PRICE OF PASSION Lord Aaron Arbogast, returning to England after a decade-old scandal-of which he was not truly guilty, but instead took the blame out of loyalty to a good friend-is the last of his line. He will someday become the Earl of Arbodean and inherit the estate...if, that is, he can prove to his ailing grandfather that he is a reformed man. Falling for a woman like Miss Worthington could cost him everything. But his desire for her? Priceless... "Bradley is at her best. The funny, charming romance, with its highly sensual edge, is a sure winner."-RT Book Reviews (Top Pick!) on And Then Comes Marriage

As the three women embark on their search to find their soul mates, they navigate the full-contact sport known as being a SSBFDLA (successful, single, black, female dating in L.A.) and negotiate the shark-infested waters of making a name for themselves in Hollywood. Can Trista, the hyper-driven celebrity agent, find the time to schedule a meaningful romance?

Attraction has nothing to do with it. Until it does. NICOLE DELANEY Down-on-her-luck heiress Nicole Delaney can't take another hit. First, her dad dies, leaving in his wake a million debts that wipe out the family coffers. Then, as if that wasn't bad enough, she now lives in a cramped downtown apartment with her mother. No privacy, and no money! Only thing worse? Her professors in her fashion school telling her to pick a new job! Nicole is simultaneously too old to rely on her sickly mother, and also too young to have a real chance to free herself from this unfortunate situation. So what does her mother do? Call the matchmaker. Surely, there's some rich guy out there looking for a hot, young wife... JENNY BISHOP The once-homeless Jenny Bishop now has it all: a bustling business as a fashion designer, enough money to keep her housed and fed for life, and access to everything she couldn't have as a foster kid. Except... there's one thing missing. A family. Whether broke or investing millions back into her business, Jenny continues to search for that elusive family she's always dreamed of having. When time gets in the way of traditional dating, she hits up a matchmaker with the hopes that there's one woman out there willing to wed a lesbian like her. TWO RINGS TO RULE THEIR HEARTS Nicole only agrees to marry Jenny to get her money, but what quickly unfolds is a genuine attraction that blindsides formerly-frigid Nicole and blinds Jenny to the logical solutions she desires. How can they think about a logical marriage of convenience when they're too busy jetting off to Hawaii for inspiration and... "inspiration?" Too bad. Because one of the nastiest women to ever play with a billion dollars is on a mission to destroy their blossoming love. So much for that June wedding and honeymoon in Hawaii!
