Three Weeks to Wed
by Ella Quinn
In the first book of
her dazzling new series, bestselling author Ella Quinn introduces the
soon-to-be
Lady Grace Carpenter is ready to seize the day--or rather, the night--with the most compelling man she's ever known. Marriage would mean losing guardianship of her beloved siblings, and surely no sane gentleman will take on seven children not his own. But if she can have one anonymous tryst with Mattheus, Earl of Worthington, Grace will be content to live out the rest of her life as a spinster.
Matt had almost given up hope of finding a wife who could engage his mind as well as his body. And now this sensual, intelligent woman is offering herself to him. What could be more perfect? Except that after one wanton night, the mysterious Grace refuses to have anything to do with him. Amid the distractions of the Season he must convince her, one delicious encounter at a time, that no obstacle--or family--is too much for a man who's discovered his heart's desire…
"Oh, the tangled webs we weave…especially when our hearts are involved. Three Weeks to Wed is a delightfully heartwarming escape into the sparkling world of the Regency. Ella Quinn weaves magic." --Cathy Maxwell, New York Times bestselling author

And now for an Excerpt!
There was much too much to accomplish before dinner for
Grace to allow Worthington to disturb her so greatly. She gave herself a shake.
Surely their meeting earlier was an aberration.
Grace sallied out to Bond Street followed by Harold to
exchange the ribbon. She stepped out of the haberdasher’s and saw Worthington
across the street engaged in conversation with another gentleman. For a moment,
she stood, frozen to the pavement.
He stopped speaking and turned as if he could sense her
presence. The next thing she knew he had stepped purposefully into the busy
street. A coach driver shouted, bringing his vehicle to a halt, and blocked her
view of him.
This could not be happening. She was not prepared to speak
to him. Not yet. “Harold, oh my, look at the time, we must return home
immediately.”
She hurriedly turned down a little-used alley leading to
Bruton Street.
The footman trotted to catch up to her. “My lady, why are we
going this way?”
Grace faced straight ahead. “This was the shortcut, was it
not? Ah, see, here is Bruton Street now, so much quicker than the other way.”
She stared straight ahead, not slowing to see if Worthington
was following.
After striding swiftly down the pavement to pass a group of
ladies, she slowed her pace and continued on calmly down the street until they
came to the cross leading back to Berkeley Square.
As soon as she attained her room, Grace took off her hat and
fell into a chair. Her heart was pounding, again. She was going to have
apoplexy at this rate. How was she to avoid him for the rest of the Season?
