COVER REVEAL of Lexi Post's WATCHING THE EARL

 

COVER REVEAL

Watching the Earl (Courting a Curious Lady: Book 6) 

She’s ruined. He’s lost it all. A perfect match?

Lady Georgina is devastated. The lord who said he loved her, ruined her, then married another. Now her parents are desperate to keep her situation private by marrying her off to the first willing man no matter who he is. But even then, everything depends on her keeping her shame a secret…and she’s never kept a secret in her life.

Lord Philip Durham has lost it all on a sure bet. Desperate to save his father’s legacy and keep his situation hidden, he agrees to marry a woman with a large dowry. Discovering she’s also ruined only makes him more determined since it’s fitting penance for his past failings. Being forced to make a life with her, and thereby raising his family’s reputation, will satisfy both of his goals.

However, Lady Georgina appears to have goals of her own, including digging into his awkward family dynamics and returning to London for the remainder of the Season. As she becomes more confident, she seems to rise from the ashes of her old life like the mythical Phoenix. But can he avoid being burned or will her transformation bring him down in flames?

Releasing in September

READING THE VISCOUNT by Lexi Post has released!

Reading the Viscount 
(Courting a Curious Lady: Book 5)

by Lexi Post 

has released!

Amazon  | Amazon UK  | Amazon AU  | Amazon CA 

She’s shy, her nose buried in books. He’s the life of the party and maybe just the hero she needs to read. 

Painfully shy Lady Sophie is happy to blend in among the other shepherdesses at her friend’s Twelfth Night ball, at least until she gets lost in the corridors and a laughing stranger sweeps her into his arms and kisses her. Horrified, she runs away, enticed back to the ball only by a change of costume. But there’s something in her new costume that has her feeling as confident as the heroine of her favorite play, giving her the bravery to experience yet another kiss from the full-of-life Lord Tamworth. Unfortunately, the next morning, she must hide from him and return to her life at school.

Lord Tamworth has vowed not to wed until after he turns thirty, as he has secret plans that must be in place before he can settle on a wife. So, when he kisses an innocent shepherdess, he’s driven to apologize only to end up committing yet another faux pas. Determined to start his new life free of encumbrances, and to once again see the lady with the softest lips and keenest intelligence, he takes extraordinary measures.

It doesn’t take long for Christopher to discover teaching at the Belinda School for Curious Ladies is filled with many pitfalls, the deepest being the intriguing Lady Sophie. As his personal plans come to fruition, he’s torn over his growing feelings for her and ponders the unthinkable―breaking his vow. But he soon realizes his own plans are the least of the impediments to keeping Lady Sophie in his life. If he plays the villain in her story, will she ever see him as the hero?

Two new romances available for preorder by Lexi Post!

 Whether you like historical romance or contemporary cowboy romance, I've got a romance story for you!


Disarming the Baron (Courting a Curious Lady: Book 3) is available for preorder at only 99¢!

She’s his mistress of convenience, which is proving quite inconvenient.

Amazon | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA 

Mademoiselle Lissette Fontaine knows she doesn’t belong among the ton, yet finds herself fast friends with many people of that status, specifically those in the Belinda School for Curious Ladies. As much as she enjoys her new friends, and the easy life of being a lady as opposed to her days of stealing food to survive, she will do anything to avoid marrying a peer, even enlist the help of her old friend Mr. Anthony Taylour to find a wealthy middle-class spouse.

Lord Anthony Taylour, the Baron of Bellamore, is rarely what he appears because as a fourth son, he knows he’s expendable. So he uses his fortune to make the world a better place whether it’s as a Bow Street Runner, a soldier against Napoleon, or a detective for his friends among the aristocracy. Needing a weapons expert, he visits the Belinda School for Curious Ladies and is pleased to rekindle his friendship with Lissa, but he’s cautious about teaming-up with her once again. After all, when last they traipsed about France, she was younger and always dressed as a man.

It doesn’t take long to accept Lissa is a critical asset in his current investigation, so when she manipulates him into posing as his mistress at a secret house party he needs to attend, he’s determined to keep her safe. However, it’s impossible to keep her innocent, and his feelings for her begin to change. Unfortunately, the lord they’re investigating is far more dangerous than Anthony realized. He can think of only one way to save Lissa.

But if he tells her the truth, he may lose her forever.

Releasing January 9th!


Hard a a Rock Cowboy (Rocky Road Ranch: Book 2) is available for preorder!

Brody Dunn just has to convince a city girl to sell her land to his family and he’s off to a new career. How hard can that be?

Amazon | Amazon UK | Amazon AU | Amazon CA

Brody Dunn is anxious to start his training as a wildlife manager and begin his new career away from Rocky Road Ranch. His father has agreed to release him from his promise to work on the ranch if he can convince the neighbors to sell their land. That extra land is the safety net the Rocky Road needs in order to survive as a cattle ranch if the new dude ranch project fails. Brody knows it will be difficult to get the elderly couple to sell land they’ve owned for over fifty years. So when he discovers their granddaughter has inherited, and better yet, has lived in the city her entire life never knowing the land existed, he’s sure it will be easy getting her to sell.

Hannah Kingsley is shocked yet thrilled to discover she owns land in Four Peaks. Though it’s nothing but desert and an old casita, it’s all hers. Since she’s already alone in the city, now that her grandparents are gone, moving out to Four Peaks wouldn’t be any lonelier. Besides, Brody seems knowledgeable, he’s handsome, and as it turns out, he’s her neighbor. What could be better?

It doesn’t take long for her to realize Brody wants her to sell right away, especially when he shows her ranch life, complete with chores, and how dangerous living in the desert can be. Yet the more she learns about her property, the town, and him, the more she knows this is the place for her. And just maybe, Brody’s the man for her as well. But can she get him to see what’s right in front of his nose, or will his one-track mind be his downfall?

Widow Lady Juliet Finch Hastings of Abercorn has nowhere to go when her brother-in-law forces her to leave her late husband’s home. Plagued by sexy dreams of a mysterious man, she now must travel to haunted Brambling Cottage, her inheritance from her great-aunt. Generations of Finches have avoided the cottage for a reason, yet it’s her only haven. Or rather, it and the man from her dreams who greets her upon her arrival.

Noah Kingman has been caring for Brambling Cottage since he turned sixteen, taking over what his father and grandfather had done before him. As a friend of the ghost that resides there, he’s excited when his dreams fill with images of a young woman of the exact likeness of the past occupant, for he knows a Finch will finally return to the nest, an event he’s waited for since a young boy.

But making life-changing decisions is a new experience for her. Sooner than she expects, she must decide whether to follow in her ancestor’s footsteps or forever embrace the past, a decision that will greatly impact them all.

CONFOUNDING THE EARL by Lexi Post has Released!

Confounding the Earl

(Courting a Curious Lady: Book 2)

by Lexi Post

has Released!

He made her successful. So why does he feel like he’s failed?

Amazon Amazon UK Amazon AU Amazon CA Amazon DE  

Lady Dorothea Ansley knows she baffles her mother and annoys her father with her prattle. Luckily, her fellow Curious Ladies are patient with her and great company during the season. But the season is coming to a close, and she is still without an offer of marriage. She needs a proposal quickly before her mother’s wandering eye causes a scandal and all chances of marriage disappear. As she stands alone at the final ball, she unwittingly catches the attention of Lord Harewood, but in a very different way than she expects.

Lord Felton Ambrose is quite good at predicting what will occur next whether it be in parliament or the next couple to be betrothed, but he never would have predicted Lady Dorothea’s conversation at the season’s final fete would be of any interest to him in the least. Curious if the moment was simply a serendipitous occurrence, he ensures that she’s invited to his family’s upcoming house party. She is the perfect lady for whom to find a suitor and achieve his goal of improving the reputation of the Belinda School for Curious Ladies to best honor the woman after which it was named.

Though his social experiment is a success and multiple men become enamored of Lady Dorothea, he is not at all happy. The lady has changed according to his sage advice, and she has taught him a few lessons on happiness in the process. By all rights, he should be basking in the glow of a goal reached, a victory hard won, but for the first time in his life, he fears he may, just possibly, have been wrong. Has he done the greatest disservice to Lady Dorothea, to the school, and to himself? More importantly, will he be too late to rectify his mistake?

PAINTING THE EARL by Lexi Post has released!

 

Painting the Earl 
(Marrying a Mabry: Book 2) 
has released! 

Lady Amelia Mabry is determined to paint her masterpiece before marrying, but she’s struggling with the male form. It isn’t as if she can hire a nude male model or she’d be shunned by the ton. So when the Earl of Sommerset, who she’s privately dubbed the Golden Adonis, surprises her with a marriage proposal, she can’t resist making a counter proposal – pose nude for her, and when the painting is complete, she’ll marry him if he still wishes her to.

Andrew Crauford, Earl of Sommerset has just inherited his title, and as he’s discovered, his father’s significant debt. He needs to marry a woman with a sizeable dowry, but no young lady has interested him. Running out of time, at his friend’s recommendation, he proposes to Lady Amelia, but he never expected a counter proposal, nor such a brazen one at that! Now he’s interested. Unfortunately, the lady has an aversion to being married for her money, which means he must entice her to fall in love with him.

Though Lady Amelia has fancied painting the Earl since meeting him, she’s shocked he agreed to her counterproposal. As his sittings begin, she finds it more and more difficult to focus on her painting instead of her model. If she’s not careful, her carefully laid plans for her future will go amiss. Bargain or not, falling in love with the Earl before completing her masterpiece is not an option.

STEALING THE DUKE by Lexi Post has Released at 99¢ #Historical Romance


Stealing the Duke

(Marrying a Mabry #1)

by Lexi Post

Only 99¢

Lady Joanna Mabry has many flaws. One is her penchant for stealing books from her peers’ homes. Since she returns them, usually to the same house, she feels it’s a harmless flaw until she’s almost caught by James Huntington, the Duke of Northwick. His outspoken views on a proper woman’s education have left her bristling. So in this case, she’s pleased to have taken his book on what is sure to be an antiquated view of the female sex.

James dismisses Lady Joanna’s odd behavior until he discovers his book on “feminine education” is missing. Guessing she has it, he’s highly amused since the cover concealed the real title, The Illustrated Pleasures of Seduction. He soon finds himself putting off his proposal to another woman as he attempts to trap Joanna into revealing her theft. He enjoys countering her energetic arguments for women’s equal education, while he insinuates what women should be most concerned with, the bedroom.

Before long, the pictures in Northwick’s book, his quiet hints, and his tantalizing touches begin to leave Joanna breathless. Worse, their debates bring her to a state of excitement she’s known with no other. How can such a closed-minded man, be so tempting? But with a spurned woman lurking in the background, Joanna must make the decision whether to let the duke wallow in a bed of his own making, or acknowledge the feelings that have grown between them…neither of which, she’s willing to do.

Veronica Reviews ~ HER WICKED MARQUESS by Stacy Reid

 



Her Wicked Marquess 


(Sinful Wallflowers #2)


by


Stacy Reid








★★★★★

5-Stars

Historical Romance






“You speak your thoughts so boldly.  Is there nothing you are afraid of?”

“I am afraid of years from now looking back on my life and feeling the keenest of regret that I had not lived.  Of never feeling again the way I feel with you.”


Revenge…that one constant thirst for revenge against those that caused harm to his first love is what has shaped Nicholas Ives, the Marquess of Rothbury, into the man he is today.  Nicholas is playing the long game in his quest for vengeance, and in doing so, has developed quite the reputation for being a rake throughout the ton.  This reputation is the very thing that has kept the eyes of those he means to ruin off his plan for retaliation…but when bumps into an intriguing “wallflower” by the name of Maryann FitzWilliam, Nicholas begins to wonder if he’s finally met someone who can bring life back to his long dead soul…if he’s ready to remove the mask and set aside his vengeance and replace it with a love worth forgiveness…


Miss Maryann FitzWilliam will not be forced to wed the odious man her parents have picked.  Devising a plan with her fellow “wallflowers”, Maryann plots to be most sinful and starts a rumor that she was the innocent that the rakish Marquess of Rothbury stole kisses from after sneaking into her bedroom window.  With the ton spreading the rumor, Maryann is confident that she will be free to live her life without the constraints of a husband.  But the one thing Maryann hadn’t counted on was the Marquess actually sneaking into her bedroom…or the intense feelings she would develop for him…


Nicholas and Maryann’s story is a slow burn romance, and dearest reader, I so very much loved it!  Heartfelt at times, soul crushing at others and so verra verra smexxy, Her Wicked Marquess is a must read for fans of this genre!  Loved and highly recommend!

 


Sharing what I love, 



Veronica
