Dire Reports of Ladies Stranded with Rogues in this Intemperate Weather!

Dear Readers,

You have no doubt been hearing of the terrible storms in various parts of our usually fair land. Dreadful weather, indeed! Various reports have come to us, but one tale in particular has been most astonishing. A lady–yes a lady–most improvidently traveled in this weather to a country inn where the less respectable inhabitants were engaged in the barbaric practice of selling a wife. What the lady could be thinking of, well, suffice to say, she is said to be a most comely woman of excellent breeding (aside from this present venture), meager fortune, and entirely lacking in the guidance of male relatives.

What might have happened to her? We shall report more on this matter as news becomes available.

Secluded with the Rogue includes Rosalyn’s Ring: 

Snowed-in at Christmas in the home that used to be hers, an impoverished lady hides her true identity from the manor’s new resident, an upstart Viscount intent on seducing her.

Done with grieving her losses, a late nobleman’s daughter has fallen into a tidy spinster’s life in London. But when one snowy Christmas Eve, a young woman needs rescue, she seizes the chance to do good—and to recover a family heirloom that ought to be hers.

Irked by his late father’s dreams of nobility, a newly anointed viscount has drawn the line at marrying a blue-blooded miss—until he meets a provoking beauty with an upper crust manner, a larcenous streak, and enough secrets to rouse even his jaded heart.

And when more mysteries swirl around the lady’s lost inheritance, he is just the right man to help her uncover the truth.

About the Author:

USA Today bestselling author Alina K. Field earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English and German literature but prefers the happier world of romance fiction. Her roots are in the Midwestern U.S., but after six very, very, very cold years in Chicago, she moved to Southern California where she shares a midcentury home with a golden-eyed terrier and a feisty chihuahua and only occasionally misses snow.

A Destitute Lady and a Bouncing Bounder?

A Reader’s Report

Dearest Readers,
A most interesting letter has been given to us, with permission to publish here. Of course we have protected the particulars of the individuals involved, but those familiar with the ton might recognize the parties.
Cannot young men be faithful?! Young ladies, beware.
My dearest M,
What scandal has come upon us since you quitted Town, and I have had no one to gossip with excepting poor C, who is too caught up in her recent engagement to give the matter any proper attention!
What do you think has happened? Miss S–you recall, the odiously pretty one who captivated Lord W at Lady Foxham’s ball–has fled Town in disgrace! Oh, not for the reasons you doubtless infer. Lord W has not compromised her, neither did he seem anxious to do so. No, it was all due to her father, Mr. S, who fled, and carried her and her poor, ailing Mama with him!
I do not know the particulars–and it is infinitely too vexing, for I cannot find it out from anybody–but Mr. S is said to have lost all his fortune–to have been made entirely destitute–by some unfortunate business dealings, and the other party involved has vanished–probably to the Continent–to spend his ill-got gains. Being unable to continue in London–indeed, being unable to lift up their heads for the shame–the S family have all gone away, and I doubt they shall be heard of again.
Of course I pity poor Miss S, and hope with all my heart she is able to find some country squire who will take her without a penny to her name. Lord W, for his part, has not seemed to mourn her going, and complimented me very prettily on my gown at Mrs. P’s rout–the peach sarsenet with the gold gauze? I think I will wear my blue silk to the Humphries’ ball Tuesday next, for I believe he shall be there. If only I could see you there as well, my dear!
Yours affectionately,
A

Discover just what has happened to Miss Stowe in one of the six delightful stories in this anthology full of sweet and satisfying romance, sure to warm your heart this winter season!

A Worthy Alteration, by Judith Hale Everett

Lord Windon can’t seem to see past a pretty face. He hops from one lovely female to the next, never settling down, until he meets a young lady from his past–Miss Prudence Stowe, whose circumstances have drastically altered–for the worse. Unable to reconcile her loveliness with the degradations of her present situation, Lord Windon is forced to consider his feelings, and gradually begins to realize that perhaps beauty isn’t only skin deep.

About the author:

Judith Hale Everett is one of seven sisters, and grew up surrounded by romance novels. Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen were staples, and formed the groundwork for her lifelong love affair with the Regency. Add to that her obsession with the English language and you’ve got one hopelessly literate romantic.

She is the author of the Branwell Chronicles series, found everywhere books are sold. Follow her on:
