An
Honorable Wish and An Unexpected Wish
By
Eileen Richards
An
Honorable Wish bcc:
After
a disastrous season in London, Juliet Townsend returns home with a
new focus – to be independent. Who needs to get married anyway?
While her sister, Sophia, enjoyed her popularity, Juliet was planning
a life on her own, and not under the thumb of some man. After a
tragic carriage accident takes his best friend after a night of
debauchery, Tony Matthews comes home to settle down, get married and
find an estate to buy. Sophia, jealous of Tony’s attention to
Juliet, issues the challenge and Tony is the prize.
Research
for Juliet’s novel provides the excuse for spending time with Tony
and keeps him away from her sister. The only problem is his kisses
tempt her to give up her plan for independence, inciting a passion
she didn’t think she was capable of feeling. When Tony finds out
he’s been the prize in the game between the sisters, he’s
furious. He retreats to his new estate. Juliet, now ruined, has no
choice but go to Scotland until the scandal passes. Her letters of
apology go unanswered. Her plan for independence no longer matters.
She has lost real love and may never see it again. Sophia meddles
again by letting it slip that Juliet might have to marry in Scotland.
Tony goes to Scotland convinced she’s pregnant with his child and
will only marry him. He convinces her he loves her and forgives her
and that she’s free to write as many books as she wishes if she
will only marry her. They marry in Scotland and return to Beetham as
man and wife.
An
Unexpected Wish bcc:
Anne
Townsend has given up on finding a husband for herself. At 27, she is
firmly on the shelf and resigned to her fate. Instead she’s
settled with finding a husband for her beautiful sister. But a
mischievous fairy derails all her plans by making her the most wanted
young lady in the village. Suddenly she’s tripping over suitors and
has no idea how to handle it.
Nathaniel
Matthews has returned to Beetham for one purpose: to prevent his
younger brother from an imprudent match to the daughter of his enemy.
The elder Townsend played a key role in his father’s death.
Instead of preventing the marriage, he finds himself wildly attracted
to Anne Townsend.
Anne
is determined to resist all the overtures from the single men in the
village save one. Nathaniel Matthews, the man preventing the marriage
that would save her and her sisters from starvation, is the one man
she can’t seem to resist.
