Rakes And Rascals

By Jasmine Cresswell

Heat level
Behind closed doors

THE ABDUCTED HEIRESS Heiress Georgiana Thayne has been hiding her looks and her brains from her aunt and uncle to avoid a forced marriage to her cousin. Suddenly abducted by their neighbor, the Marquis of Graydon, she sees a new way out of the unwanted betrothal - by making sure the Marquis has to marry her instead. THE BLACKWOOD BRIDE Trying to escape the terms of his father’s will, Viscount Blackwood needs to find a bride quickly. Turning to the inhabitants of the local poorhouse, he brings home a desperately ill woman, and marries her before she is well enough to object. As he begins to get better acquainted with Sarah, his new bride, he starts to realize that his abrupt wedding might have brought him all he could wish for. Sarah meanwhile needs to decide if she can trust her brusque handsome husband, as the secrets of her past continue to haunt her.

Content warnings

For your information, not judgment.

Severity reflects intensity, not value — “central theme” means a warning is a core part of the book, not that the book is bad.
