Lady Imogen Stockwell is convinced that her handsome new neighbor Draco Waring, Earl of Woodley is a pirate. How could he not be with a name like Draco and a dog by the name of Parrot?

Ever since she was a little girl, Lady Ella Stockwell has spent idyllic summers at her uncle's home in Moonstone Landing. But this year is slightly different, for a contingent of wounded soldiers has just arrived in the charming seaside village, including the handsome and highly decorated war hero, Caden Seaton.

Daire Claymore, Duke of Claymore, does not understand why he is so drawn to Moonstone Landing, the sleepy village on the coast of Cornwall.

Except he cannot coax, bribe, buy, or get the impertinent Brenna Angel. Not that he wants her, although she is stunning and irresistible in an irritating way. He is merely negotiating to purchase a property owned by the stubborn beauty.

Although Major Fionn Brennan worked his way up the military ranks, no amount of cultured upbringing will make him worthy of Lady Chloe. His heart aches to have her, yet how can he dare hope for a match when he was raised as a nameless orphan left to fend for himself on the roughest London streets? If not for the viscount who chose to bring him home instead of having him tossed as a boy into prison, he would probably be dead. Now that he has been put in command of Moonstone Landing's army fort, he is bound to see Chloe every day.

Lady Phoebe Killigrew is appalled by the scandalous country parties her new neighbor, a war hero marquess, is holding at his estate in Moonstone Landing. She has every intention of keeping well away from him—until a governess arrives at her door with his two nieces. They are mere children and cannot possibly reside under the same roof as that dissolute. When she storms over to demand he reform his ways, or she will not give them over to him, she is unprepared for the feelings he stirs in her, for her heart understands his nieces are not the only ones in need of rescuing.

But their funds are limited, and the new earl is a stingy guardian who will not loosen the purse strings to allow her to properly maintain herself and her sisters in their new home. The only way to save them all is for her to marry.

If Beast can love her, then any man she chooses will surely do the same. Alexander Beastling, Duke of Hartford, is known as Beast among the ton.
