Sir Richard Kenworthy has less than a month to find a bride...
He knows he can't be too picky, but when he sees Iris Smythe-Smith hiding behind her cello at her family's infamous musicale, he thinks he might have struck gold. She's the type of girl you don't notice until the second-or third-look, but there's something about her, something simmering under the surface, and he knows she's the one.
Iris Smythe-Smith is used to being underestimated. With her pale hair and quiet, sly wit she tends to blend into the background, and she likes it that way. So when Richard Kenworthy demands an introduction, she is suspicious. He flirts, he charms, he gives every impression of a man falling in love, but she can't quite believe it's all true. And when his proposal of marriage turns into a compromising position that forces the issue, she can't help thinking that he's hiding something...even as her heart tells her to say yes.

Books Read: Julia Quinn - A Night Like This
Source - Received from publisher to review
Anne Wynter's job as governess to three highborn young ladies can be a
challenge - in a single week she finds herself hiding in a closet full
of tubas, playing an evil queen in a play and tending to the wounds of
the oh-so-dashing Earl of Winstead. After years of dodging unwanted
advances, he's the first man who has truly tempted her, and it's getting
harder and harder to remind herself that a governess has no business
flirting with a nobleman.
Daniel Smythe-Smith might be in mortal danger, but that's not going to stop the young earl from falling in love. And when he spies a mysterious woman at his family's annual musicale, he vows to pursue her. But Daniel has an enemy, one who has vowed to see him dead. And when Anne is thrown into peril, he will stop at nothing to ensure their happy ending . . .

Books Read: Julia Quinn - The Lady Most Likely
Source - Received from publisher to review
Hugh Dunne, the Earl of Briarly, needs a wife - so his sister hands him a list of the very best young ladies on the market. And then, because he refuses to tear himself away from the stables where he trains Arabian racehorses, she invites all those ladies to a house party, along with some other bachelors, of course.
So who will Hugh choose? The
Botticelli-esque, enchanting Gwendolyn? The outspoken, delightful
Katherine? If he doesn't work fast, he'll lose those ladies to his
closest friends, and then where will he look for a wife? Perhaps, just
perhaps, toward a lady who's not on a market at all, and would require a
great deal of persuading . . .
