Regency Lords & Ladies: The Larkswood Legacy / The Neglectful Guardian

by Nicola Cornick, Anne Ashley

The Larkswood Legacy by Nicola Cornick
Widowed Mrs. Annabella St. Auby's situation was uncomfortable, but meeting Sir William Weston was wonderful! He made his interest very clear, and she was hugely drawn to him.

But when her father's tangled affairs were finally sorted out, she found that her sole inheritance, Larkswood, was of prime importance to Sir William. And Annabella began to wonder -- was Sir William pursuing her for herself or for her legacy?

The Neglectful Guardian by Anne Ashley
Sarah had waited years for the absent Marcus Ravenhurst to make an appearance and check up on his ward. But life under the care of her cousin had finally become intolerable. So much so that she had taken matters into her own hands -- assumed a new identity and set out alone for Bath.

As luck would have it, the weather soon forced her to delay her journey at an inn along the way, the very same establishment the neglectful Marcus had come to, searching for his missing ward. But could the intriguing man who watched her so intently really be the man who held her future in his capable hands?
