Welcome to Litsy!

From New York Times bestselling author Mary Balogh come two classic tales of Regency-era romance, where scandalous liaisons kindle passions too powerful to conceal. MORE THAN A MISTRESS Hired to serve as nursemaid to the wounded Duke of Tresham, Jane Ingleby tries to pretend it�s strictly a business arrangement. Surely there could be nothing more perilous than being the lover of such a man. Yet when she gets past his devilish fa�ade and sees the noble heart within, she knows the greatest jeopardy of all�a passion that drives her to risk everything on one perfect month with an improper gentleman who thinks that love is for fools. NO MAN�S MISTRESS Lord Ferdinand Dudley is accustomed to getting what he wants�until he tries to claim his rightful estate from the bewitching Lady Viola Thornhill. Refusing to cede him the home she calls her own�and unwilling to consider marriage�Viola knows that this is a battle she cannot afford to lose. Each day under the same roof brings its share of frustration�and temptation�as both sides in this contest of wills find their resolve melting in the heat of passion�s bright flame. From the Paperback edition.
