When George inherits a viscountcy and must find a wife, his mistress suggests the daughter of a marquess. But Lady Elizabeth is determined to marry the Earl of Trenton, even if his kiss is like those of her best friend’s dog!

The sole survivor of a fire that killed his family, Joshua inherits a dukedom. He is recovering from his burns when Lady Charlotte, who was betrothed to his late brother, arrives with the intention of marrying Joshua. Despite his feelings for her, the duke is reluctant to take a wife, sure his scars are too offensive. Meanwhile, her father has arranged a marriage to an earl. Whom will she marry?

Henry loves Sarah, the mother of his only son. But Sarah has refused his offers of marriage because she knew he would one day be an earl.

But what of her dog? Henry may have to learn some new tricks.
