A Duke by Any Other Name, book two of the Brides of North Barrows series of Regency romances, is now available in an Italian edition.
Daphne Goodenham era sempre stata determinata a sposare un duca, non solo per la sua inclinazione per abiti eleganti e feste, ma perché voleva garantire che lei e sua sorella non fossero mai più indigenti. Quando incontra il Duca di Inverfyre, un dandy di fama, nota subito delle intriganti incongruenze. Il Duca ha qualcosa in più di quello che sembra? Perché avrebbe dovuto nascondere la verità visto che era bello, giovane, ricco e duca? Alexander, il Duca di Inverfyre, era deciso a catturare, a qualunque costo, un noto ladro che aveva ferito sua sorella. Ma quando la bella signorina Goodenham si deciderà ad affascinarlo, il travestimento di Alexander si rivelerà una difesa contro la curiosità di lei e lui non opporrà alcuna resistenza al suo bacio. Daphne riuscirà a sventare inavvertitamente il piano di Alexander? Dovrà sacrificare il suo interesse per vendicare sua sorella? Oppure Daphne potrà rendere possibile il trionfo di Alexander permettendo che il suo desiderio di Natale possa davvero avverarsi ?

Scommessa da gentiluomo
Sette anni prima, Sophia Brisbane perse tutto – suo padre, suo fratello, il suo patrimonio familiare – ma peggio ancora, fu rifiutata dall’uomo che amava. Determinata a non desiderare il passato e i suoi piaceri, fino a quando non incontrò di nuovo Lucien de Roye. Pur sapendo che Sophia non avrebbe mai potuto essere sua, Lucien aveva giurato di recuperare l’eredità sprecata, scommettendo la sua stessa anima con un demone.
Quando Sophia scoprirà l’accaduto, nessuna forza in cielo o in terra potrà convincerla a lasciare che sia lui a pagare il dovuto al demone, a qualunque costo.

Denied his rightful legacy, Maximilian de Vries devised a plan to avenge himself upon his father and see his own future secured. Allied with his two half-brothers, he descends upon ancient and mysterious Kilderrick, determined to seize the keep once promised to him, regardless of the price. A woman rumored to be a witch is the sole one bold enough to defy him but Maximilian has a solution—he will take her to wife, whether she be willing or nay, and seal his claim.
But this powerful warrior has yet to match wits with Alys Armstrong, a maiden with a thirst for vengeance and a fury that might exceed his own. Alys has no intention of capitulating to the proud and powerful rogue who stole everything from her—no matter how seductive his touch might be—and she does not share his compulsion to fight fair.
Bitter enemies from the outset, Maximilian and Alys’ match is a battle of wills. When passion flares, will either of them be able to resist temptation? And when Kilderrick itself is in peril, will they join forces to save the holding they each prize—and the unexpected love they value above all else?
