Description

A girl being forced to marry despite her wishes needs a plan, but when that plan involves the Ton's most dangerous Duke she best not get tangled in her own web.

It was simple, become the belle the season and then from become its greatest scandal. And if she could prick her brother's much too serious and completely unsuitable friend in the process, all the better. She hadn't had a bit of fun with Simeon in far too long.

In his club, Simeon felt a cold shiver race down his spine. Smart man.

It had taken years for him to perfect his scowl. He was more likely to use his debate skills in the House of Lords than his fists, but his opponents weren't always so sure. His aloof demeanor always kept people at bay. Except for one green girl who always managed to get under his skin.

What others have to say about the book:

This steamy regency romantic comedy series will delight you if you are the type to laugh out loud at the antics of a "talking" dog, or cheer on difficult women, or scowl at men being nobcocks. This series is not for the women looking for Georgette Heyer or Jane Austen. As amazing as they are, I have no wish to write like them, though I am not above borrowing a trope or two. If you are the type to quibble about a social faux pas you won't be happy with this series. In short, this is not your mother's Regency. These girls are rebels who cross class lines like they skewer men's hearts. Oh but these men! It takes a strong man to love a difficult woman.

Author Interview:

Why do Regency Romance if you aren't going to write it "correctly"?

Because as much as I love Regency tropes the actual language and social customs are torturous. Have you read dear Jane? I mean all credit to her, she invented the novel as we know it and I adore anything that puts Colin Firth in breeches but to sit down and read one of her stories now is onerous. We don't speak like that anymore and there are hours of nothing to do. I love Regency love stories for the tension that the social mores of that time yield. But I also love a good laugh. These books give me the tropes I love, laughter, and women I can see myself and my friends in. These are women you can imagine hatching plans with and enjoying a good laugh at how it all turned out afterwards.

If the women aren't related how are they the "Heiresses of Eris"?

One of the Regency tropes I love is the informal "club", usually men bound together over a common distrust of women or some such nonsense which in the end they all get over. Eris is the Greek goddess of chaos. She's the one who started the Trojan War by tossing an apple into a group of goddesses that said "to the fairest". These girls cause their own sort of mayhem. None of them were comfortable in the roles society assigned them. All of them decided to take matters into their own hands. That they all met was fate. When they did, they dubbed themselves the Heiresses of Eris. They knew what they were from the start.
