Book Synopsis The Regency Storybook by : Lesley-Anne McLeod
Download or read book The Regency Storybook written by Lesley-Anne McLeod and published by Uncial Press. This book was released on 2013-09-12 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: England in the early 19th century: a place of extraordinary happenings. War on the continent and political upheavals at home buffeted the lives of ordinary people, while arts and literature flourished under the Prince Regent and a glittering group of aristocrats led high society. It was a period of tumultuous change. The twelve short stories in this book follow fictional Regency characters facing the challenges of everyday life while brushing up against momentous historical events. Young Miss Phoebe Churcham is unwittingly caught up in the assassination of the prime minister. The publication of a literary classic causes problems for Sir Aubrey Granthorpe. Imogen Rush, Dowager Marchioness of Lavington, visits with an old friend--the Regent's mistress. The tragic death of a princess touches the Newick family as it does the entire nation. And one day, foppish Postumus Enderby is inspired to take radical steps after reading the morning news. These stories and others will draw you into the private lives and wider world of Regency England. Charming costume illustrations by Shakoriel bring colour to these heroes and heroines, embellishing all twelve of Lesley-Anne McLeod's stories. The Regency Storybook is a collection of lives, loves, and histories--of a time two hundred years ago, but as vivid as yesterday.

But for the right woman, even an unrepentant rogue may mend his ways . . . Lady Grace Mabry's ample inheritance has made it impossible for her to tell whether a suitor is in love with her— or enamored of her riches. Who better to distinguish beau from blackguard than her notorious childhood friend, the Duke of Lovingdon? With no interest in marriage, Lovingdon has long lived only for pleasure. He sees little harm in helping Grace find a proper match. He simply has to teach the lovely innocent all the ploys a scoundrel uses to gain a woman's favor— by demonstrating his wicked ways. But as lessons lead to torrid passion and Grace becomes ensnared in another man's marriage plot, Lovingdon must wage a desperate gamble: Open his heart fully—or risk losing the woman he adores . . .

From New York Times bestselling author Lauren Royal and her daughter comes the first novel in their beloved Regency series featuring the "outrageously funny, loyal, and endearing" Chase family. Lady Alexandra Chase has always liked being the perfect daughter, thank you very much. Why would she bother chafing against society's restrictions when instead she could be basking in the warm glow of its approval? But when her brother's best friend-and secret obsession-returns from a long spell abroad, she begins losing interest in the suitable young lord she's expected to marry. Suddenly, family duty and a flawless reputation seem less important than the chance, however slight, that her girlhood crush might notice her now that she's all grown up... Tristan Nesbitt has done some growing up himself over the last few years, what with moving across oceans, inheriting a title, and facing a devastating scandal. But through it all, he's never forgotten the Chases, the closest thing he had to a family back in his school days. When his old friend Griffin Chase requests a favor, he's happy to oblige, as long as he can maintain enough distance from the family that his infamous past won't tarnish their good name. Unfortunately, one Chase seems intent on getting much closer to him than she should... PLEASE NOTE: This book is a SWEET & CLEAN ROMANCE.
