Fine Feathers / The Makeshift Marriage

the long version

FINE FEATHERS Miss Molly Marriott has left the stifling confines of her aunt's home to live with her uncle and cousin at Underhill House and take her rightful place among the ton. But when she falls victim to a highwayman and is left for dead, she's rescued by the magistrate Lord Cordrey. Molly knows there's a plot against her life, but isn't sure whether or not she can trust Cordrey with her life -- or her heart.... THE MAKESHIFT MARRIAGE Miss Laura Milbanke agreed to marry Sir Nicolas Grenville after he nearly died defending her honor in Venice. But after returning home to King's Cliff Manor, Grenville finds himself tempted by the presence of the beautiful Augustine Townsend. Now, Laura must decide whether to fight this ravishing rival -- or give herself to another man offering the love her husband has denied her.
