It takes courage to navigate the Regency marriage market, but it takes even more courage to refuse it. When five spirited young ladies send a letter to the papers informing the ton of their decision to remain single, there's no small uproar - but Arabella, Grace, Rose, Bertha and Susan are determined to claim independence. Of course, their rejection of marriage feels set in stone at the time... but once the ladies meet their chosen gentlemen, even the strongest principles can waver in the face of true love!

Rose Goodyear is exhausted. Publicly declaring a lack of interest in marriage and being sent in disgrace to her aunt and uncle in Whitby was tiring enough, but now she's been a wedding guest three times to see the friends who made her same vow go back on their word. Not only that, but Lady Gaunt's Christmas gathering is approaching - and the piece she has to sing must be absolutely perfect. Sheltering in the abandoned St. Paul's church after an unexpected rain shower, she tries to both collect herself and honour her talents by practicing her notes.

Tarquin DeLonge is a monster - or at least he thinks he is. Disfigured from an accident five years ago, he now lives the life of a shy, music-obsessed recluse in a decaying church on a quiet street. But one day a voice brings him out of the darkness... and the woman attached to it not only shares his passion for music, but is in desperate need of instruction.

Moonlit lessons begin, the empty church full of song. Passions rise, along with sentiments that Tarquin never thought he could feel again. But Rose wants her music master with her on the night of the grand performance - can Tarquin overcome his terrors, his distrust of people, to aid the woman he loves?

Lose yourself in this deliciously sensual slice of Regency escapism by Felicia Greene, the queen of quick-read romance novellas. With tortured dukes, teasing heroines and attraction that defies all decorum, these brief but beautiful tales will make any spare hour fly by!
This book is the fourth standalone in the Unmarriageables series, with faces from Books One,Two and Three popping up. If you like misadventures, forbidden attraction and love that defies all odds, you'll love these quick, steamy Regency reads!
