She soon learns, however, that she will not get to reprise her role as Mistress. To her horror, she finds his lordship expects her to submit to him!

You don’t get to where I am by being approachable.

I’m used to seas of people parting for me. Especially in the lobby of the building I own, filled with people who work for me.

Guess no one told the new marketing intern:

She spills her coffee all over me and then offers to replace my custom couture with Kathy Ireland.
Emery is a sweet little blinky-eyed Kansas girl. A kitten in the middle of our shark tank. It’s just common decency to protect her. Take her to lunch and get to know her. Wonder why she looks at me like she wants me to eat her alive, but pulls back every time I’m ready to bite.
Okay, so that last one isn’t decent at all. In fact, every fantasy I have about her is downright filthy.
Discovering I’m her first?

Well, it gives me even more wicked thoughts about the big... city I can show her.

I’ve been burned before. Fool me once, right? I built a billion-dollar company by planning for every possibility. Making sure nothing gets past me again.

But I sure didn’t see this one coming.

She’s not meant to be a bride…

At least not to the man her parents picked out. Ellie Greene wants a quiet life with Grams on the Wyoming farm, and quiet could happen if someone would stop sabotaging them. Each week something more dangerous happens and Ellie doesn't know how much more she can stand. Forced to seek help, Ellie would prefer anyone else other than the tall, dark, sexy-as-sin cowboy with the knight-in-shining-armor complex she gets stuck with. While the chemistry between them flares brighter than fireworks, Ellie knows they want different things from life. She wants an easy-going farm boy, and nothing about Shane is easy. Besides, soon he’ll be moving on. 

He’s not meant to be a civilian…

Shane Hannigan doesn’t know how to be anything but a Marine sniper.  Honestly, he’s not sure he’s good at anything else. Since the IED explosion took his leg—and most likely his career—he’s not sure where he belongs. As a man whose job is to protect others, coming across the blonde-curly haired beauty with a flat tire is a nice distraction, that is until he finds out the flat was no accident. Someone is out to get Ellie, and even though she’s the most stubbornly competent woman he’s ever met—and damn if that’s not a sexy trait—he knows she's in danger and he’s going to help her, despite her obstinate objections. 

Can they work together to find who is determined to destroy Ellie before it’s too late?  Or will Ellie lose her heart and her farm? 

If you could escape the life your parents chose for you, would you do it?

Horse racing isn’t for nice girls like Alex. She’s been told again and again: stick to horse shows, stick to riding lessons, stick to the relative safety of the suburban equestrian center where she has been a working student since grade school.

But Alex can’t shake the conviction that the Thoroughbred life is her destiny.

When her unstable trainer cuts her off from horses, Alex finally has to obey her instinct to run away from the safe version of life. She heads to Ocala, where horse racing is king, with no plan and no leads on jobs. When she meets handsome, successful racehorse trainer Alexander White, she feels an instant connection with him. Could this be her dream come true?

Falling for Alexander and learning to stay on young racehorses all at once: that’s risky business. But it’s a risk Alex is willing to take — until a storm of emotion threatens to founder her new life. Nothing at Alexander’s gorgeous Thoroughbred farm is as simple as it seems, and she’s not the only one lining up for Alexander’s affection — or his horses.

How many times will Alex obey her urge to run away when things get too real? And what happens to her dreams if she can’t stay the course?

Gallop headlong into a world of beauty, love, and risk with this stunning women's fiction novel!

Praise for The Alex & Alexander Series

“[Alex is] easy to relate to–equal parts doubt and hope, insecurity and confidence. I think she’s inspiring, and will nudge her readers to face their own crises.”

– Melaina Phipps, Saratoga.com

“The writing is beautiful, and if you love horses, she doesn’t dumb it down. She concentrates what makes horses so compelling.”

– Alexa Shelton, Amazon review

I had to wonder about my sanity when I was coerced to try out for a reality TV show called “If the Shoe Fits.” That should have been my first warning.

My second warning should have been when I was the only girl whose foot actually fit the shoe amongst all of the stunning beauties.

There wasn’t a third warning.

Just my friend’s glee when she tapped me on the head with a magic wand and I was transported into a fairy tale castle and came face to face with three of the most handsome men on which I’d ever laid eyes. You might think that would be a fairy tale come true for a down-and-out waitress like me. But you’d think wrong, because as soon as I was introduced to the Queen, she accused me of high treason.

My Princes broke me out of the castle and now we’re on the run, hunted by the Queen’s guards and horrifying magical abominations. They told me I was the only one strong enough to bring magic back to their dying kingdom, but I can’t even light a candle. They told me I was their Fated Mate, but I don’t feel any bond. They told me they were all mine, but how could three stunning men want me?

And now, my Princes have been taken. I have no magic – and I’m the only one who can save them from the terrible wrath of the Queen. They put their faith in the wrong girl. I should have heeded the first warning.

Make it a steamy holiday season with three Christmas Regency Romances from Georgette Brown.

A DECEMBER TRYST

The Viscount Carrington exacts a scandalous price from the woman who insulted him. For him to consider approving marriage between his ward and her son, she must agree to surrender herself to him for three nights of passion.

TEMPTING A MARQUESS FOR CHRISTMAS

The Marquess of Alastair has doubled the dowry he is providing Miss Abbott because the sooner she is married, the sooner she is out of his care — and his fantasies.

To Mildred Abbott’s dismay, her dowry is now attracting numerous unwanted suitors, and she has no interest in marrying. What she wants is an encore of her night at the Château Follet, where Alastair once fulfilled her most decadent desires.

A ROGUISH CHRISTMAS WISH

In this steamy second chance romance, a husband betrayed ventures into the bordello where his estranged wife has been reduced to work. But will his intentions to satiate his burning desires backfire and ruin Christmas?

Nothing ruins a lovely house party like bloody murder.

At the decrepit old age of six-and-twenty, Miss Beatrice Hyde-Clare has virtually no hope of landing a husband. An orphan living off her relatives' charity, her job is to sit with her needlework and to keep her thoughts to herself.

When Bea receives an invitation to an elegant country party, she intends to do just that. Not even the presence of the aggravatingly handsome Duke of Kesgrave could lead this young lady to scandal. True, she might wish to pour her bowl of turtle soup on his aristocratic head - however, she would never actually do it. But a lady can fantasize.

But, when she stumbles upon the dead body of another houseguest, all Bea's good intentions fly out the well-appointed window. Although the magistrate declares it a suicide, she knows better.

Time for some very unladylike behavior.

They have no choice but to break all the rules. Hopefully their hearts will avoid the same fate…

Millicent Fortescue has no time for the nobility and their nonsense. Making sure her shop is ready for Christmas requires her full focus. So, when a brooding, battle-scarred lord shows up making ludicrous claims about her being the daughter of a duke, Millicent’s tempted to send him away. But there’s something about him that keeps her from saying no…to anything he wants…

Gabriel is desperate. The only way to rescue his sister from a marriage worse than death is to use Millicent as leverage against her vile father. The last thing he expected was for her to cooperate with his wild plan. And her offer to bring in The Kidnap Club? Even better. Now all he’ll have to do is figure out how to stop kissing his oh-so-willing victim…

But a fake kidnapping can lead to some very real—and problematic—feelings. When all is said and done, Millicent and Gabriel will need a lot more than the magic of the holiday season to make it to happily ever after…

A marriage they didn’t choose. A child conceived in a lie. Can they overcome their broken dreams and find happiness in a life forced upon them?

At her age, Ruby Jeffries knows better than to dream of love, but then, Lucas Ashbrook sweeps into her life with whispered declarations of love and fervent kisses. He’s everything she’s hoped for, and Ruby would risk far more than the scandal of an elopement to be with him. But when she discovers Lucas faked the wedding to win a bet, Ruby is left with more than a broken heart.

Conrad Ashbrook spends his life mending that which his elder brother breaks, and when Lucas abandons the young lady bearing his child, Conrad has no choice but to shoulder that responsibility as well. Marrying a lady he doesn’t love and raising his brother’s child wasn’t what Conrad wanted for his future.

Can a marriage starting with such pain ever bring them happiness?

"‘Hugh’ has the flavour of a queer Tom Jones or a queerer Tristram Shandy. Intriguing, ambitious, and pretty damn delightful. This is a genuinely impressive accomplishment...a unique and exhilarating journey. I think the only way to experience anything quite like it would be to literally read Smollett, and ‘Hugh’ is, honestly, a lot more fun.” – Alexis Hall, author of Boyfriend Material

This romp through 18th century England is like nothing told in the era of Tom Jones – a sparkling, humorous, and poetical coming-of-age 242 years in the making.

From an old family trunk comes a manuscript which never saw the light of day. Its pages tell of the life, times, and blackmail of a young queer aristocrat stepping into 1768 Society…

A time of wig powder and heeled slippers.
Duels and social climbers, when the most popular member of the government is declared an outlaw. Hugh Entwistle enters this world wealthy, witty, and well-connected. Everything to be a success – everything, except that thing stuck to the bottom of his heeled slipper.

Hugh’s is a story of secret encounters and significant looks. Hushed separations and sobriquets. But if he dares define Liberty, he might be asked to confront a blackmailer. Asked to confront a father. And before he can make a marriage proposal, follow his heart, and accept one.

Hugh is a rollicking tale of comic angst, and a celebration of the wit, beauty, and absurdities of a glorious age.

Praise for Hugh: A Hero without a Novel:

“...I found it absolutely fascinating…Sui generis, thoroughly interesting, fabulously vivid in place and time, and I’m glad I read it.” – K.J. Charles, author of The Magpie Lord

“...a work of queer historical archiving that’s as admirable and remarkable as its hero.” – Kirkus Reviews

The Marquess of Alastair is trying to be a gentleman for a change, but this Regency miss won't take 'no' for an answer!

Mildred Abbott is a proper Regency miss, but she cannot deny the dark desires that torment her body in the quiet of night. Engaged to an uninspiring sycophant, she asks the influential nephew of her patroness in debauchery to interfere and break her engagement. When her appeals to him fail, she decides to take a singular opportunity—a visit to the Château Debauchery—to indulge her most wanton cravings before she submits herself to a life of wedded dullness.

The Marquess of Alastair concerns himself with no one, but to appease his aunt on her birthday, he agrees to select one person whose interests he will look after. It was not his intention to choose the plain and simple Miss Abbott, but when she unexpectedly shows up at the Château Debauchery, his hand is forced. Knowing his aunt to be partial to the miss, he grudgingly decides to act the part of a gentleman and preserve Miss Abbott's honor by removing her from the Château.

But Mildred refuses to go until she has had her night of wicked debauchery.

READER ADVISORY: This novella is a work of erotic fiction with romantic elements. It contains light bondage, BDSM elements and themes of submission/dominance.

Miss Emma Harlow hasn’t earned the reputation as a hoyden for nothing.

So when the Duke of Trent discovers her in his conservatory stealing one of his orchids, he’s isn’t surprised—charmed, delighted and puzzled, yes, but not surprised. It is Emma who is amazed. She has naturally concluded that the man reading in the conservatory must be the country cousin (who else in London would actually read?) and is quite vexed to discover that he is the Duke of Trent himself—imagine, stealing the duke’s prize Rhyncholaelia digbyana under his very nose!

But her vexation doesn’t last long.

For Emma is a practical young lady with a mission: to end her dear sister Lavinia’s engagement to the villainous (and dreadfully dull!) Sir Waldo Windbourne, and she thinks that the famous libertine is just the man for the job. If he would only seduce her sister away from Sir Waldo…. Well, not seduce exactly, but flirt mercilessly and engage her interest. Perhaps then Lavinia would jilt the baron. The Duke of Trent is resistant, of course.

Despite his reputation, he does not toy with the affections of innocents. And besides, it’s not her sister he longs to seduce.
