10 parts Complete An Unexpected Marriage...
Peter Wentworth, the Viscount of Vauxhall, must wed by Christmas or lose his title to a wicked cousin who would see his tenants suffer. Marriage is the last thing on Peter's mind, but duty demands it. Just when hope seems lost, fate brings him face to face with Lydia Halls, the daughter of the late Lord Masonwood, who is also under pressure to marry. Without a husband by Christmas, Lydia and her mother will be cast out of their home. Bound by necessity and with time running out, Peter and Lydia are forced into an arrangement neither of them desires. Can they find a way to save each other, or will their growing connection complicate everything?
Reluctant Affection...
Lydia Halls has only ever wanted one thing-security for her mother. Marriage was never part of her plan, but with the threat of losing their family estate looming, she has no choice but to consider the unthinkable. Enter Peter Wentworth, a man equally uninterested in love but bound by obligation. His presence stirs something unexpected within her-an attraction she struggles to ignore. As their wedding date draws closer, Lydia finds herself falling for the man she thought would be her salvation, but now might be the one to steal her heart. Caught between duty and desire, Peter and Lydia must decide if they can turn a marriage of convenience into something more before time runs out.
