The Duke of Fire (#1): Having witnessed the roguish ways of men, Miss Jane Harcourt has decided she is better off to remain a spinster. Working as a governess has brought her fulfillment, but when she finds herself suddenly without a position, Jane begins to fret. When her cousin alerts her that a Duke is seeking a governess for his son, Jane is overcome with joy. That is until she finds out that this is a man who is believed to have killed his wife, a man known as the Duke of Fire.
Michael Blackstone, Duke of Hayfield, knows all too well the rumors surrounding his wife’s death. For years, he has remained isolated inside his home with his son, allowing his misery and the guilt of her death to consume him. When the latest in a string of governesses leaves their home, he sends word in hopes of finding anyone who would risk being in his employ.
Desperate for employment, Jane agrees to work for the man she fears, but when she meets the Duke she is left to wonder if there is any humanity left within him. As times progresses, Jane begins to see a different side of the infamous Duke of Fire, for she sees a man who is overcome with guilt and grief—a man so lost, he is losing his mind.
For Michael, Jane has brought more than excellent teaching inside his home, she has also brought hope into an otherwise dark life. Finding the woman intriguing and enjoying her company, his feelings for her begin to grow, although he fears his love will never be returned. Although she is afraid, Jane allows herself to fall for the broken Duke despite not knowing if her love will be enough to save the man from himself...
Return of the Duke (#2): Orphaned at a young age, William Hawkins has lived a difficult life. Employed at a grand house, he feels he has finally found his place in the world, though he has always wondered what life would be like being a member of the ton. Everything is turned upside down when he learns that he is the long-lost heir to a massive fortune and a Dukedom he never knew existed.
Miss Marianne Blithe, the daughter of a once wealthy merchant, finds most men who come calling to be dull and boring and realizes that love is elusive at best. What she hopes is to find a gentleman who will see her as more than another servant in his household and will love her for who she is.
With their family fortune faltering, Marianne and her mother are employed to teach William the ways of the ton in exchange for business opportunities for Marianne’s father.
During his training, William and Marianne find themselves in quite a dilemma—they have become attracted to one another. However, as the date of William’s introduction to society draws near, Marianne notices changes in the man that make her wonder if their love will be strong enough to withstand the arrogance he has adopted, and William wonders if being a Duke is worth giving up who he truly is at heart.
The Duke of Ravens (#3): Do you believe in the legend of the Duke of Ravens?
Caroline Hayward, the Duchess of Browning, is married to a man thrice her age who considers her lower than the servants while he parades his mistress in front of her. Feeling unworthy of love, Caroline finds comfort with her son, Oliver.
Philip Butler is the gardener of Blackwood Estate, a quiet man who admires from afar the strength Caroline possesses. Although he wishes to stop the cruelty her husband inflicts on her, Philip knows his place in society keeps him from intervening. Upon the death of Caroline’s husband, however, Caroline asks Philip to be her protector, for there are those around her who seek the wealth she has acquired, giving him the chance to be in her presence more often than he could have before.
With the passage of time, Caroline realizes that her feelings for Phillip are changing, and she begins to wonder if love can be found after all. Yet, although he sees the look of yearning she carries, Philip knows all too well the risk of falling in love, and he does what he can to temper what is rising within himself.
When Oliver is kidnapped and held for ransom, Caroline sends a desperate letter to the Duke of Ravens, a man of legend known for tracking down those who took his wife. When the Duke refuses, she turns to Philip for help. As the two set off to retrieve her son, Caroline questions those she once trusted and begins to worry that her enemies are much closer than she first thought. Will the strain of hunting down the kidnappers bring the two together? Or will it drive a wedge so deep it tears them apart?
Duke of Storms (#4): Emma Barrington will do anything to save her father’s business…and some men seek to take advantage of that fact. As the daughter of a bookkeeper, Emma Barrington works in her father’s lowly office dreaming of better days. Without the necessary funds to even buy a new dress, she has forsaken any chance at love and instead dedicates her time in retaining her father’s accounts. When a client demands an explanation for an accounting error, it is Emma who must confront the infamous ‘Duke of Storms’.
Lucas Redstone, Duke of Rainierd, has a vile temper that has served him well thus far. Many men fear him to the point that he bears the moniker of Duke of Storms with pride. Although his temper aids in his business life, it has made the task of finding a formidable bride difficult. That is, until he meets Emma, the woman sent to correct his accounts, and to his bewilderment, a woman who does not fear him.
In order to save her father’s business, Emma agrees to continue working with the duke but soon fears his motives may not be true. And Lucas begins to wonder if the innocent woman who is softening his heart is doing so in order to increase her own wealth.
