In this sizzling Regency romance by award-winning author Tracy Sumner, an
unconventional lady of the ton and an untitled businessman need to risk
something in order to gain everything.

An Incorrigible Hellion

Independent, impulsive Lady Philippa Darlington guarantees her freedom by
playing the role of wallflower for two miserable seasons in the ton. With
the guidance of the most feared feminist enterprise in London—the
Duchess Society—Pippa vows never to marry. But a madcap misadventure
throws her plan off course and puts her face-to-face with the only man
she’s ever wanted. A man who doesn’t want her.

A Rule-Breaking, Rookery Titan

Prince of the streets, Xander Macauley crawled from the slums to rule an
empire. He has secrets—and fierce desires. One being that he’s
smitten with his best friend’s little sister. Although reckless Little
Darlington is the last woman in England he’d risk his heart over. When
he has to rescue her from a masquerade ball gone awry, Xander finds he will
go to lengths greater than he’d imagined to possess her.

The risks are undeniable.

But so is true, devastating love.
