Audrey (odderie) | 48 comments There's currently a GR listing for Distracting the Duchess by Emily Bryan.

"Emily Bryan" is a pen name for Mia Marlowe.

Mia Marlowe has a self-published book titled How to Distract a Duchess with information listed here on her website. This book still needs to be added to GR. The description of the book sounds substantially similar to the first book mentioned above.

Can I combine these editions, even with different titles and author names?

Yes, but the primary author will need to be the same (the one under which it was originally published) in order to combine them.

Audrey (odderie) | 48 comments Thanks, rivka. I'm not a hardcore librarian editor, so this kind of thing makes me nervous. So, yeah, apologies for the multiple questions!

Do you mean that I would need to add How to Distract a Duchess under primary author Emily Bryan and then add a secondary author, Mia Marlowe? Then combine them?

Or do I add Mia Marlowe to Distracting the Duchess? Do I add her as the primary author or the secondary author?

Sorry, just want to make sure I don't screw it up!

Yes.

And we like questions in this group, so don't apologize. :)
