And if they, and their wealthy clients, happen to find love along the way, it just makes their efforts all the more rewarding! A young military widow, Eliza Pierce is enjoying both freedom and financial success as part of Elegant Occasions. When her late husband’s best friend, Nathaniel Stanton, the Earl of Foxstead, hires Elegant Occasions to help another young widow of an officer become part of high society, Eliza wonders why. Is the woman a relative? Or is she the earl’s mistress and her adorable toddler his child? If so, why does he take Eliza in his arms every chance he gets . . . Foxstead’s family situation makes it difficult for him to marry, so his visceral attraction to his best friend’s widow is an unwelcome complication. Burdened by family secrets and those of his commanding officer, he’s determined to do his duty even when it means being around Eliza every day. But how can he resist when the fetching Eliza keeps tempting him to break his own rules? For if he dares to expose the truth, will she ever forgive him? Or will she banish him from her life forever . . . “This heartwarming historical romance teems with witty banter and wanton desire.”— Library Journal Reviews: Praise for What Happens in the Ballroom “Jeffries fills Regency London’s ballrooms with steamy trysts and scandalous secrets in her sexy second Designing Debutants romance… The characters’ chemistry is strong, and the mystery of Nathanial’s connection to Jocelin keeps the pages turning. Jeffries delivers.” —Publishers Weekly “This heartwarming historical romance teems with witty banter and wanton desire.

The thing that makes all of Jeffries’ heroines stand out is that none of them are quiet and boring. Pretty? Often. But the women she writes are spirited, intelligent, devilish, brave, independent and politically and culturally savvy. They are true heroines; she-ros, if you will. And Olivia Norley is definitely a she-ro.” —Bookpage on Who Wants to Marry a Duke “Sabrina Jeffries is touted as a master of romance—and the first novel in her new Duke Dynasty series is as steamy as they come…a witty, scintillating read.” —Woman’s World, Editor’s Pick for Project Duchess “An excellent blend of great characters and witty dialogue make this a delicious first in a new series.” —BookPage, STARRED REVIEW for Project Duchess “The chemistry is as intense in the bedroom as it is in the science lab in Jeffries’s intoxicating third Duke Dynasty Regency romance…Jeffries’s perfect blend of romance, mystery, and suspense is sure to have series readers anxious for more.” —Publishers Weekly on Who Wants to Marry a Duke “Who Wants to Marry a Duke is a story of love and commitment, risk and vulnerability, and ultimately, the courage to trust.
