La governante di un duca, un gentiluomo entomologo e un castello pieno di fiori sono l'ambientazione perfetta per una storia d'amore estiva. Alice Sharpe, nuova governante della famiglia ducale, deve imparare a controllare la sua impulsività. Lavorare nella casa del duca è un'opportunità unica, che potrebbe significare vivere nel comfort per il resto dei suoi giorni. Sfortunatamente, il suo primo incontro con l'ospite del duca, un affascinante gentiluomo ossessionato dagli insetti, dimostra che potrebbe non essere pronta per il ruolo austero di governante. Rupert Gardiner ha un obiettivo: far pubblicare il suo lavoro in entomologia e botanica dalla Royal Society. È fortunato che il Duca di Montfort creda in lui e lo incarichi di registrare tutta la flora dei terreni del castello. Ma la spontaneità di Miss Sharpe e la sua continua apparizione durante il suo lavoro sono una fastidiosa distrazione. Almeno, è ciò che si ripete. Mentre Alice lotta per adattarsi al suo nuovo ruolo, cercando costantemente di passare inosservata pur rimanendo se stessa, non può fare a meno di ammirare l'intelligenza e la concentrazione di Rupert. Più spesso si trovano insieme, più la sua ammirazione cresce. Ma un gentiluomo come lui potrebbe mai innamorarsi della governante? Questa storia segna l'inizio delle storie d'amore del Castello di Clairvoir, una serie leggera ambientata nel periodo Regency.

When an unsuitable gentleman appears to court a baron's daughter, it's an older sister's duty to stand in his way. And, of course, not fall in love with him herself. Matilda Rayment is determined to protect her sister's interest and her family from ruin, which means she must marry off her flirtatious younger sister before the Season ends. When the Rayments cross paths with Oliver Bolton, the nephew of their steward, his interest in Miss Beatrice threatens all Mattie's plans. For as long as he can remember, Oliver has dreamed of courting Miss Beatrice Rayment, but never dared reach above his station. He hasn't been a gentleman long, but owning his estate - however small in size - gives him access to new rungs on Society's ladder and finally, his chance has come. It is up to Mattie to steer Oliver away from making an unhappy match with her sister, but before long she finds herself losing her heart to the steward's nephew. Oliver finds he cares less and less about winning Beatrice the more time he spends in Mattie's company. Can such an unsuitable match take place, or will all their plans be ruined?

Lady Evelyn Lyon lost her husband and her fortune on the same day. Daughter in hand, she makes her way to the copper mines of Arizona, hoping her husband's stock in the Bisbee Copper Queen mine will make it possible for her to raise her little girl. Every man she's known has failed her, and she would far rather be alone than dependent on one. When the stock certificates in her possession prove fraudulent, Evelyn and her little girl are more alone than ever. Chris Morgan, known as "Frosty" by cowhands and neighbors alike, never expected to have a family. When his cousin back east dies and leaves Chris with two children to raise, Chris has no choice but to change his plans. But raising children and running a ranch at the same time is a tall order. He's at his wit's end when he comes across a British noblewoman who has no business wandering around the desert without protection. When he learns her story, Chris knows they might be the solutions to each other's problems. A hasty wedding and dusty ride to Chris's ranch starts their marriage of convenience off on a bumpy road. With children to raise and cattle to herd, Evelyn and Chris have no choice but to trust each other. But in the west, trust is hard won, and it's hard to grow anything...especially love
