About this listen
Feigning an attachment was the easy part, but falling in love was not part of the plan.
Lady Esther Harington finds herself in a terrible predicament when she is being forced into an arranged marriage. Out of options—and hope—she tries to escape and meets a man that is sympathetic to her plight. In desperation, they hatch a plan to solve her problem. They will form an attachment with one another for the Season, knowing it comes at a great risk to them both.
Mr. Samuel Moore never anticipated the heartache that would come when he saw his long-lost love on the arm of another. That is the only thing that could explain why he agreed to pretend to pursue Lady Esther, but he quickly realizes that she is the perfect distraction.
As Esther and Samuel's friendship takes hold, they are drawn to one another and the lines between what is pretend and what is real begin to blur. Their plan quickly spirals out of control, but neither one of them expected to fall in love. With so much at stake, can they trust their hearts to know what is truly best for them?
Contains mature themes.

In the eyes of London Society, Gillian Phelps is suitable enough. Though the ton whispers about her change of residence, any speculation remains just that: ballroom gossip. No one—not even the other Huntresses, the group of ladies she calls her dearest friends—knows that she is harboring a devastating family secret. Gillian has become adept at hiding the reality of her circumstances, but the close quarters of a house party will test her ability to conceal the crushing truth. And with so many people to deceive, the late arrival of another guest is a most unwelcome surprise.

Society’s golden boy, Everett, the Marquess of Northampton, was outraged when a young woman suddenly appeared in his curricle. Was she attempting to trap him into an unwanted marriage? It would be just like some overzealous mother to put her up to such a ploy.
