The Duchess sends her monsters out to steal precious items that belong to the peasants of Drachenberg. Everything is going according to the Duchess s plan for a brief moment. When Princess Dahlia meets Prince Draven, a young man who looks identical to the Duke, it enrages the Duchess. Consumed with jealousy, she only wants to steal one more thing. The heart of the princess. Her monsters do as she says until they realize they are heartless. But if the monsters want hearts, they must set everything right. They become determined to show everyone the truth about monsters: monsters are created, not born. It s a dark tale of love and loss, of repentance and forgiveness, of magic, and above all, of monsters.

No one can outrun their past.Inheriting a Dukedom is hardly convenient for Percy Cole's plans to hide from his former employer at the Home Office and the people who'd happily kill him to keep their secrets buried. But the fearless Lady Daniella who's reentered his life and recklessly deemed them "friends" refuses to leave him to the shadows, earning Percy's hard-won loyalty and not-so-obvious affection.The Duke has secrets, but so does she.Even after nine proposals of marriage, Lady Daniella Deime can't forget the mysterious man who stole her first kiss in a dark courtyard. Thrown together by chance, the only thing more potent than the tension between her and the duke is the underlying darkness shrouding their pasts. Fight all she likes, every passionate encounter brings her closer to the truth: Proposal ten may be the charm.Re-conscription into the army, hired thugs in an alley, their pasts darken their doorsteps, and nothing short of an ex-spy and a crack shot duchess can rally an unlikely gang to uncover and stop the monster behind it all.

Death is just the beginning in this dark, chilling Gothic Regency Romance... After the death of her beloved guardian, Miss Felicity Fields is left adrift, her future uncertain. Grief-stricken, she launches a plan to use her knowledge of alchemy to build a Philosopher's Stone, and bring back to life the woman who was like a mother to her. The last thing this blunt bluestocking needs is the return of Nicholas Harding, the Duke of Wycliffe and rightful owner of her home on the wild coast of Cornwall. He stirs an unexpected passion within her, and Felicity has had enough change in her life. When they were children, Nicholas never understood his aunt's brilliant but unemotional ward, or her many strange scientific studies. He ought to take her back to London, so she can make a proper society match--except he can't stop thinking about her. But with the line between life and death blurred by Felicity's macabre experiments, can he convince her that she's no longer alone, and her proper place is by his side? "Erica Monroe's voice is a breath of fresh air for the historical romance genre. The Determined Duchess is wildly inventive, with a romance you will root for!" -Jess Michaels, USA Today Bestselling Author Previously published in CHARMED AT CHRISTMAS

A Most Unsuitable Duke! Adrian Fitzwalter, the Duke of Barroughby, wore the taint of scandal with flair, his very presence charged with the promise of forbidden things. But the gentle Lady Hester knew the rakish pose was only a mask, hiding a desperate and lonely man. With her knowing eyes and quiet beauty, the spinsterish Lady Hester was a far cry from Adrian's usual amours.

Scandals are nothing new to the royal family of the United Kingdom. From abdication crisis, heart-breaking love stories, infidelity, and libelous affairs with married men to topless photos of the royals gracing the covers of popular tabloids, bribery charges, sexual assault allegations, late-night phone calls, tax havens, and tell-all interviews, the royals have had it all. When the youngest couple Prince Harry and Megan Markle, the Duke, and Duchess of Sussex gave a tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey, it turned into a firestorm. The Harry-Meghan interview was riven with accusations of racism. Many criticized her accusing Meghan of washing her dirty linen in public, while many others came in warm support for her. This was not the first time the Queen handled a mess that her extended family often created. The Queen has scrupulously strived to maintain the royal family’s pristine image. The abdication crisis of 1936 had rocked the very foundations of the UK royal family when Edward VIII relinquished his throne and all royal status to marry the love of his life, Wallis Simpson. Their story of a king renouncing his kingship to wed the love of his life is all lovey-dovey, but it had long-standing repercussions and it derailed an entire line of succession. So much is at stake that the rigidity of royal life is not completely unfounded or without a purpose.

The long-awaited prequel to Koen’s beloved Through a Glass Darkly, Dark Angels is a feast of a novel that sparkles with all the passion, extravagance, danger, and scandal of seventeenth-century England. Alice Verney is a young woman intent on achieving her dreams. Returning to England after a messy scandal forced her to flee to Louis XIV’s France, Alice is anxious to re-establish herself by regaining her former position as a maid of honor to Charles II’s queen and marrying the most celebrated duke of the Restoration. But all is not as it seems in the rowdy, merry court of Charles II. Since the Restoration, old political alliances have frayed, and there are whispers that the king is moving to divorce his barren queen, who some wouldn’t mind seeing dead. Alice, loyal only to a select few, is devoted to the queen, and so sets out to discover who might be making sinister plans—and if her own father is one of them. When a member of the royal family dies unexpectedly, the stakes are raised. As Alice steps up her efforts to find out who is—and isn’t—true to the queen, she learns of shocking betrayals throughout court, and meets a man who she may fall in love with—and who could spoil all of her plans. With the suspected arrival of a known poison-maker, the atmosphere in the court electrifies, and suddenly the safety of the king himself seems uncertain. Secret plots are at play, and war is on the horizon—but will it be with the Dutch or the French? And has King Charles himself betrayed his country for greed? Unforgettable in its dramatic force, here is a novel of love and politics, of romance and betrayal, of power and succession—and of a resourceful young woman who risks everything for pride and status in an era in which women were afforded little of either.
