Four new stand-alone-novellas by four top-selling authors of historical romance.

A Persian princess and three English beauties cavort through these novellas, taming four scoundrels of differing shades of arrogance and pride. And all — scoundrel and damsel alike — are about to lose their hearts in the most enticing, unexpected, blindingly stubborn ways.

HIS WICKED EMBRACE
by USAToday Bestselling Author Lauren Smith
A kidnapped Persian princess was the last thing he expected to find when Lawrence Russell went under cover for the Bow Street Runners. But with one look at her terrified eyes, he knew he had to save her. And in doing so, he knew she’d made of him a better man. Still in danger of being discovered by her obsessed captor, the half-English princess Lady Zehra is left with only one request of her handsome savior. “Take me to bed. I wish to see the stars again.”

THE SECRET SCOUNDREL
by Kristin Gabriel, two-time Rita winner and author of the Harlequin book made into the television movie Recipe for Revenge
One stolen vase, two captured hearts.
Miss Diana Harwood was too tall to gain a fellow’s interest, and Colin Sinclair, Marquess of Thorne and Viscount Thorne, was too much of a rogue to tempt any clear-thinking maiden. But when neither can manage to win the upper hand, their only recourse is to collaborate in finding the priceless Chinese vase Thorne was hired to recover…and leave their hearts perilously unguarded.

A SCOUNDREL AT HEART

Until she was freed from her own prison, and took him into her heart—scars and all.
