Hate Mail — An Arranged Marriage Romance (Paper Cuts #1)
By Winter Renshaw / Genre: Contemporary, ST Romance Test, 5edb3046-f9c1-4621-85f5-a4f7c2464a28_201
In the Wakemont family, it’s tradition to arrange a marriage before the ink is dry on your birth certificate. I was five hours old when my father promised me to the son of a man with “more money than God.”
As we grew older, my future groom and I were encouraged to exchange “love letters” to get better acquainted—except the correspondence he sent read more like hate mail.
Slade Delacorte hated the arrangement.
But more than that, he hated me.
He was moody, intense, arrogant, and darkly gorgeous. A villain—not a prince. The last man on earth I’d ever marry (if I had the choice).
On my 24th birthday, we exchanged vows in front of six hundred guests who had no idea we weren’t every bit the blissful couple we pretended to be.
But as we began our new life together, I soon learned there was only one thing worse than marrying the man I’d hated my entire life: falling in love with him.

Blake (Blue Halo Book 3)

Willow Foster has been a single mother for most of her young daughter’s life, ever since the girl’s father—a man Willow thought she’d be with forever—inexplicably disappeared. Now, just as mysteriously, he’s back, living in Cradle Mountain, Idaho. Blake has always been her weakness, and while she’s no longer willing to risk her heart, Willow relocates so her daughter can build a relationship with the father she barely knows.
She can only pray she doesn’t lose part of herself in the process.
Blake Cross’s life changed for the better when he learned he was having a daughter. Then, two years later, it changed for the worse when he was kidnapped and separated from his family. Finally free, his priority is his child…and her mother. Blake may no longer own her heart, but he still cares deeply for Willow. He can’t change their past, but he can promise a better future.
Or can he? When Willow’s life is threatened on more than one occasion, both their futures are a lot less certain, forcing Blake to risk everything to protect the mother of his child—and the woman he never stopped loving.

Love Practically (The Penn-Leiths of Thistle Muir Book 1)
By Nichole Van / Genre: Victorian, Historical, ST Romance Test
As a young woman, Leah Penn-Leith fell hopelessly in love with Captain Fox Carnegie—the only irrational mark on her decidedly sensible life. Fox, unfortunately, did not return her regard.
Their story should have ended there. After all, Fox left for India. And Leah returned home to Scotland to rear her much younger brothers.
But twenty years later, Fox appears on Leah’s doorstep—older, scarred, and world-weary—proposing a marriage of convenience between them. He needs a mother for his young ward, and Leah, with her capable good sense, comes highly recommended. What woman could say No to such a proposal? Not Leah. Fox has always wreaked havoc on her ability to think rationally.
After their marriage, Leah confronts the chaotic reality of Fox’s life. His castle, ten miles up a rugged Highland glen, is shambolic. His ward, Madeline, is a precocious handful. Fox’s time in India is shrouded in rumor and mystery. Worst of all, Fox himself is distant and broken, his personality as altered as his scarred body.
Throughout it all, Leah is left with two questions: What happens to a woman after her most-cherished fantasy comes true? And can a marriage, begun in practicality, transform into something deeper? Something like . . . love.

Melting Miss Wynter (Rogues and Gentlemen Book 17)
By Emma V Leech / Genre: Victorian, Historical, ST Romance Test
A brother determined to save his family’s honour…
Sampson Pelham, eldest son of the late and not at all lamented Viscount Cheam is surprised but not disheartened by the untimely passing of his sire. Run out of England with his reputation and honour blackened beyond pitch, Sampson’s father was a vile and violent man whom the family will do very well without.
Now, however, Sampson faces the unenviable task of getting his house in order. Being one of four siblings universally known as “The Scandalous Brothers,” bringing his family back into the respectable world of the ton will be an uphill struggle.
The thought of the youngest of his kin, seven-year-old twins, Selina and Susan, being branded “The Scandalous Sisters” when they eventually come out is too appalling to consider. Respectability is his goal, and Sampson is single-minded in his purpose.
A chill in the air and an unmistakable spark of attraction…
A governess for the unmanageable twins—one with impeccable references from one of the grandest families of the ton—is hired at once to accompany Sampson and his family to visit his half-brother, Captain Ross Moncreiffe, for Christmas.
When a violent snowstorm separates the family on the road, Sampson finds himself marooned at a small inn in the company of the twins and their new governess… And soon suspects that Miss Wynter is not everything her references suggested she would be.
A woman with a scandalous reputation…
Miss Gwendolen Wynter is hiding a dark past under a new name and the veneer of respectability. Miss Guinevere de Wynn is the illegitimate daughter of the infamous Marie de Wynn—mistress to the Marquess of Davenport, the woman who robbed the marchioness of her jewellery and ran off with another lover. The de Wynn family are, in fact, notorious for indulging in every vice known to man and their infamy can be traced back generations.
In a desperate bid for a quiet life, free from disgrace and mayhem, Gwen forges her references and secures employment in the first household available with such haste she neglects to discover details of the family she is to work for. When her attraction to the eldest of the equally infamous Scandalous Brothers becomes impossible to ignore, Miss Wynter must be at her iciest to avoid yet another scandal and to keep the truth of her identity from the man who is melting all her good intentions.
