Would-Be Wallflowers

New York Times bestselling author, Eloisa James returns with the first novel in a brand-new series featuring a brilliant romance between a British heiress and an American businessman vying for the same costume emporium. Miss Cleopatra Lewis may be the granddaughter of a viscount, but she has spent the last few years tending the enormous fortune her father left her, which stems from the sale of toilets. Her mother's last wish is that she meet her grandfather, who immediately announces that he will introduce her to society. She will need an entirely new wardrobe, so she makes her way to a costume emporium-and ends up buying the establishment. Jake Astor Addison is an American financier in London to buy the Emporium, with a ring snug in his pocket ready to offer to the lady of his choice back in America. But when, he walks into the business that he intends to transfer to New York, he discovers that a British lady has bought it out from under his nose. Cleo and Jake cross swords: he wants the Emporium, and she will never give it up to such a vexing man. Jake is equally convinced that no one in polite society will order clothing from Cleo's new business. They strike a deal: Cleo will order a flamboyant wardrobe for Jake-who only wears black, and Jake will order Cleo's half-mourning wardrobe. London society will judge who should own the Emporium.

New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James returns to the “Would-Be Wallflowers” series with an enemies-to-lovers romance between a proper earl and an entirely improper lady, whom he can't stop thinking about. Giles Renwick, Earl of Lilford, has never made a fool of himself over a woman, until he meets Lady Yasmin Régnier. Yasmin is ineligible for his attentions in every way: not as a wife, certainly not as a mistress (she is a lady!), nor even as a friend, since they vehemently dislike each other. Her gowns are too low, and her skirts are dampened to cling to admittedly lovely thighs. She loves to gossip, and giggle. She isn't dignified, or polite, or even truly British, given that her father's French ancestry clearly predominated. Not to mention the fact that her mother had been one of Napoleon's mistresses, a fact she makes no effort to hide. So, what, in heaven's name, possesses him to propose? And what will he do if she says yes?

“The Duke of Huntington” has no interest in an eccentric redhead who frowns at him over her spectacles...until he realizes that she is the only possible duchess for him. A new enemies-to-lovers romance by New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James. Bespeckled and freckled, Lady Stella Corsham at least has a dowry that has attracted a crowd of fortune-hunting suitors, which definitely doesn't include the sinfully handsome Silvester Parnell, Duke of Huntington, who laughingly calls her "Specs" as he chases after elegant rivals. And then, The worst happens. Marriage. To the duke. To a man marrying her for all the wrong reasons. How can Silvester possibly convince Stella that he's fallen in love with the quirky woman he married? Especially after she laughingly announces that she's in love, but not with that duke. Not with her husband.
