Brides of Scandal

Complete box set of Diana Bold's BRIDES OF SCANDAL series. 

GAMBLING ON THE DUKE'S DAUGHTER 

Captain Dylan Blake has spent the last decade fighting for his country. Desperate for a little peace, he sells his commission and returns to England but soon finds himself angry and adrift in London Society. When an old nemesis challenges him to a wager -- he must get Lady Natalia Sinclair to dance with him twice in one evening -- he is willing to play along.

MARRYING THE AMERICAN HEIRESS

Michael Blake, a straitlaced English nobleman, desperately needs to marry an heiress. When he discovers that his intended bride--and her much-need dowry--has been romanced away from him by his own brother, he is forced to turn to the only other great heiress on the market.

Emma Marks is an American adventuress who has spent the last few years traveling the world--a bargain she made with her father in return for her promise to marry a titled aristocrat by the time she's twenty-five. But when Michael is accused of a crime he didn't commit, can Emma help him deal with the ghosts of his past? And can Michael show Emma she doesn't need to travel the world to be happy because love is the greatest adventure of all?

SEDUCING THE SPINSTER

Julian Tremaine, the Earl of Basingstoke, is a notorious rake; Lady Jane Bennett is a spinster with a spotless reputation. Neighbors since childhood, they'd always expected to marry. They'd been the best of friends, and when Julian experienced a string of tragedies, Jane had been the one he'd turned to for comfort. However, when her father died the year she turned eighteen, Julian hadn't known how to be there for her the way she'd been there for him. Instead of marrying her and giving her the protection of his wealth and title, he'd run away, leaving her destitute and alone. Broken-hearted and disappointed, Jane has learned to fend for herself and vowed never to love again.
Now, seven years later, circumstances have thrown them into each other's paths once again. Julian has realized what a mistake he'd made and wants a chance to show her that's she's the only woman he's ever loved. However, thoroughly independent and stubborn Jane would rather be alone than make a mistake of her own.
The most charming rake in London is waging a tireless campaign to win the heart of the most confirmed spinster. Will she give in to his advances or be the one to break his heart this time?

FINDING THE BLACK ORCHID

When Lady Jessalyn Hunter finds herself ruined, both socially and financially, she is forced to accept the help of her brother's best friend -- a man she's loved since childhood.

Ethan Tremaine has spent his entire life running from the tragedy of his past, but he can't refuse his best friend's dying request. He reluctantly agrees to marry Jessalyn, even though he's terrified by the thought of someone depending on him.

What begins as a marriage of convenience quickly becomes much more. Can they find the courage to love, or will they let the ghosts of their pasts destroy them?
