Summary
“We should speak to her individually. She might give her blessing then, but she might need time…”
“Yes,” Anthony mutters, his breath tickling her lips. “You are right, of course.” He pauses and she can hear his breathing turn ragged to match her own. “I don’t know how much longer I can—“ his gaze flicks down to her breasts and she fears she might break, might fall into his arms and beg him to take her right there on the grass.
If those unbearable gossips want a scandal, she and Anthony will give them a good one.

“I am capable of multi-tasking.” Anthony replied, and as if to prove a point, he ran a hand along the exposed skin of her thigh. “And even in times such as this, rest assured that I am always interested in your thoughts. In fact, I would like to know if –“
Two sharp knocks to the door cut him off. Kate immediately shoved Anthony off her, nearly sending him crashing into his desk.
“Brother, have you seen Miss Sharma?” Francesca asked from the hallway. “I was told that she had arrived, but I have yet to see her. I do not know where she could be.”
“She’s here!” Anthony called.
Kate's eyes widened in betrayal.

“You do not care what others think of you?” He asked. The man studied her and then quickly looked at their surroundings. “I find that difficult to believe.”
“And why is that?” Kate was not certain why she felt compelled to argue with the man, though he seemed to enjoy the back and forth. As did she, not that she would admit as much.
He tilted his head. “You are attending a ball where the goal of nearly every unmarried person is to find a suitable match. We base such matches on what we think of others actions or status, do we not? To attend such an event disproves your earlier claim.”
“Enlighten me, my lord. Is that your goal? Are you looking for a suitable match?”
He pursed his lips and looked away momentarily, and Kate felt herself almost sway at his movement, as if pulled into his orbit. He took a step closer. “And if I were to say yes?”
“If you were to say yes, then I would suggest it would do you better to peruse the dance floor rather than this terrace.”

Summary
Lord Bridgerton was once a dark lord who ruled the people of his city by channelling dark and tainted threads of power. The only way to save him had been to sew a dark mark upon his skin, which shuttered the full extent of his abilities. After all his trials, Anthony feared he may have lost his soul in the process.
Kathani Sharma lived most of her life in the cavernous Underdark until forced to the surface so that her sister could find an adept to be apprenticed to.
They meet in the ancient city of Lund, though it may be too late to save Anthony’s soul.
--
“I know who you are,” she said, her voice cruel. “Lord Bridgerton, are you not?”
Biting the inside of his cheek, Anthony realised he did not wish to admit it.
“You who terrorised this city a few years ago?” She said. “And yet you still walk free?”
“I saved this place from the blight!” Anthony knew full well that his atrocities after that far outweighed any good he had ever done.
The woman merely laughed and started to walk away. Unable to let it go, he followed, not sure what he could say or do, just knowing that she stirred something inside of him, and if she walked away, he would probably never see her again.

One disastrous first date ends with wine down his expensive suit. You’re certain that’s the end of it.
Until Adore calls to say he wants a second date.
Now you’re stuck navigating mandatory matchmaker sessions, forced dates, and a man who drives you mad, even as he slowly, infuriatingly, starts to get under your skin.

Summary
you don’t believe in love. neither does he. that’s the only thing you agree on. after swearing off romance, you’ve built a quiet life in art preservation and avoiding anything resembling vulnerability. but when Harry Castillo, arrogant, infuriating, and stupidly rich, proposes you pretend to be his fiancée for the sake of getting his overbearing mother off his back, you’re thrown. but the money is good and with your detached views on romance and love, you make the perfect polished, commitment-free partner. It’s just a deal; cold, clean and temporary. but pretending to be in love with a man you can’t stand has a way of making you feel things you promised yourself you’d never feel again. especially when he starts looking at you like you're more than just a line item in a contract.
