Unhinged Historical Romance Collection

Society has survived scandals, duels, and Almack's lemonade. But nothing prepared it for The Pumpkin Spice Duke.Julian Valente, Duke of Niblick, once commanded Parliament with dignity. Now, thanks to a "demonstration" gone wrong at the Pumpkin Trust, he cannot enter a drawing room without leaving matrons swooning in nutmeg-scented heaps. London hails him as a national treasure. Julian considers self-immolation by cravat.Treva Bratton, inventor and unapologetic bluestocking, refuses to be impressed. She has a Society for Sensible Seasonal Excess to run (motto: No Gourds in Parlors), and no time for a man who smells like pudding. Unfortunately, one rescue at Hatchards, a waltz debacle at Almack's, and a goose decree later, she finds herself declared his "official match" by the only authority that matters: Toni the Goose.Now the Pumpkin Trust plots to plunge the ton into Eternal Autumn, scandal sheets compare dukes to custards, and Treva's inventions keep catching fire at inopportune moments. If London is to be saved, the Duke and the inventor must join forces-preferably before the goose organizes another tribunal.A Regency romcom of scandal sheets, sabotage, and seasonal absurdity-proving that true love is stronger than even the strongest cinnamon fog. Verity Farcett writes the books you never knew you needed-until you tripped over them.From Regency romps with weaponized scandals to epic fantasies where the Chosen One probably isn't, Verity skewers every genre trope she can get her quill on. Her stories blend absurdity, wit, and sideways logic, delivering plots that spiral gloriously out of control while somehow still hitting every satisfying emotional beat.Whether it's historical romance, heroic quests, or gothic melodrama, no trope is safe-but every adventure is written with a suspicious amount of affection for the genre she's dismantling. If you like earnest disasters, reluctant heroes, and plots that fight back, you'll find your next favorite catastrophe right here.When she isn't orchestrating fictional disasters, Verity can be found communing with her Tufted Roman goose, Toni-muse, menace, and inspiration for all honking hijinks.
