    About the Book
    Title  When We Dance
    Genre Historical Romance- Regency
    Author Alanna Lucas
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Nigel Rochefort succeeds at everything he attempts, but burying his family in scandal and breaking up a wedding while seducing the bride is not quite what he had in mind. Nor was finding true love.
    Step by Step
    Miss Artemisia Germayne is used to gossip. She is far from the ton’s version of an ideal beauty. Worse still, she cannot dance. But when she finds herself in the uncomfortable predicament of abandonment on her wedding day, embarrassed and humiliated she retreats to the country.
    Nigel Rochefort, second son of the Earl of Monfort, has always taken his good fortune for granted, so when the woman for whom he has a secret tendre is about to marry his friend, the only logical thing to do is break up the wedding. But that scandal is only the start. The bride’s sister has also disappeared, and Nigel must first clear his name to assure Artemisia’s affections. As he gives chase, many truths are yet to be learned. This is no simple country dance or game of seduction but an unstoppable waltz of desire—and true love.

    Trust, patience, and mistletoe must overcome a forced marriage, dark secrets, and a looming shadow that threatens all chance of Faith finding love with the Marquess of Hawthorne.

    Holiday Wish
    Marcus, the Marquess of Hawthorne, vowed never to fall in love. He should have vowed never to marry. Caught in a compromising situation, he’s been forced to wed the young woman he was trying to rescue. Beautiful? Yes. But his new bride’s apprehensions seem worse than his own, and as family and friends arrive at Deer Park to celebrate Christmastide, all he wants is for Faith to play the part of a happy wife and hostess. 

She will not, however—or cannot. And when she commits yet another desperate act, this time with disastrous results, Marcus must save Faith once again. Now he must discover what drives her, what dark secrets keep her unable to trust or love, and what she truly desires. Only then will they, with the magic of mistletoe, overcome the pasts and taste the delights of the season.

    A masquerade, a chance meeting, and a kidnapping: Little did Miss Penelope Ashurst realize that breaking the rules would result in the adventure—and love—of a lifetime.

    One night. That’s all Miss Penelope Ashurst wants away from the strict decorum of Regency society. Donning a mask and attending a forbidden masquerade, she meets the man of her dreams. Then, before she discovers his identity, she is kidnapped.
    Untasted
    From their first encounter, his goddess in a golden mask stirs a deep and different longing within Ranulph, the Earl of Monfort. When she disappears, he vows he will find her no matter the cost.
    Unstoppable
    Soon it’s a race against time, and the kidnappers are just the start. Penelope and Ranulph’s very lives are in jeopardy. Before the end, everything will be stripped away, and Penelope and Ranulph will be more than just face-to-face. But this is true love, and nothing will stop it.

    About the Book
    Title     Dancing Around the
    Truth
    Genre Historical Romance- Regency
    Author Alanna Lucas
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings G, PG, PG13, R): R
    Dark secrets,
    lies, and a far too enticing widow threaten to destroy the orderly world
    Benjamin Weston, the illegitimate son of the late Baron Albryght, has made for
    himself…and Mrs. Philippa Keates might just also hold the key to unlocking his
    heart.
    Secrets &
    Lies
    Mrs. Philippa
    Keates thought she’d found her happily-ever-after when she eloped, but two
    years and no children later she is named a widow. Then a woman claiming to be
    her late husband’s wife appears, and Philippa demands answers.
    And Love
    Benjamin
    Weston, the illegitimate son of the late Baron Albryght, has made a name for
    himself conducting investigations for those willing to pay a high price for
    discretion. When a childhood friend shows up on his doorstep, begging for his
    assistance, Weston fears most of all that she will discover the truth…and thus
    bring further scandal to herself, the only woman he has ever loved. But as he
    unravels her mystery, as secrets of his own begin to come to light, soon it
    becomes clear that there is more at stake than just Philippa’s reputation—and
    nothing less than her heart.
