The second in a sparkling series of Regency fiction with a fairytale twist by New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James
Tarquin, Duke of Sconce, weiß genau, dass die hübsche und grundanständige Georgiana Lytton die richtige Frau für ihn wäre. Doch warum kreisen seine Gedanken dann ständig um ihre Schwester Olivia? Nicht nur ist Olivia mit einem anderen Mann verlobt, eine Heirat mit ihr steht wegen ihrer unverblümten und unkonventionellen Art vollkommen außer Frage. Quin gibt sich alle Mühe, Olivia zu vergessen, aber sein Herz sagt etwas anderes ...
Theodora Saxby is the last woman anyone expects the gorgeous James Ryburn, heir to the Duchy of Ashbrook, to marry. But after a romantic proposal before the prince himself, even practical Theo finds herself convinced of her soon-to-be duke's passion. Still, the tabloids give the marriage six months. Theo would have given it a lifetime . . . until she discovers that James desires not her heart, and certainly not her countenance, but her dowry. Society was shocked by their wedding, but it's scandalized by their separation. James heads to sea where he becomes a notorious pirate, and Theo builds their estate into a flourishing concern. Back from the seas, a scandalous tattoo of a poppy under one eye, James now faces the battle of his lifetime: convincing Theo that he loved the duckling who blossomed into the swan. Theo will quickly find that for a man with the soul of a pirate, all's fair in love - or war.

So when he meets a lady as serene as she is beautiful, he promptly asks for her hand in marriage. With a lady Edie—whose passionate temperament is the opposite of serene—had such a high fever at her own debut ball that she didn’t notice anyone, not even the notoriously elusive Duke of Kinross. When her father accepts his offer… she panics. And when their marriage night isn’t all it could be, she pretends. In a tower. But Edie’s inability to hide her feelings makes pretending impossible, and when their marriage implodes, she retreats to a tower—locking Gowan out. Now Gowan faces his greatest challenge. Neither commands nor reason work with his spirited young bride. How can he convince her to give him the keys to the tower… When she already has the keys to his heart?
