An omnibus of novels by Rosanne E Lortz
Now available in one collection, the first three volumes of the Kendall House Regency Romances! When Lord Kendall adopts his three spirited nieces, trouble and tantrums ensue. The eldest, Penelope, is old enough to make her debut in London, but Lord Kendall needs the assistance of the kind and capable Mrs. Audeley to launch her into society. Full of witty banter, page-turning adventure, and sweet and swoon-worthy romance, this series follows the escapades of a sensible widow, a managing earl, three high-strung heiresses, and the friends they make along the way.
The London Rose (Kendall House #1)
A handsome earl. A trip to London. But is this Derbyshire widow ready to give up her independence for a second chance at romance?
Longtime bachelor Lord Kendall is ready to launch his orphaned niece Penelope Trafford into the ton, but her tirades and tantrums are making things tiresomely difficult. A chance encounter with the sweet and sensible Mrs. Audeley proves to be a godsend, and the Derbyshire widow agrees to assist the earl with his niece’s debut. But as they plan a London season for Penelope, Lord Kendall finds himself wishing that Mrs. Audeley would figure into his own future as well.
Confined to the country for most of her life, Mrs. Audeley is delighted to explore the excitement of London with her son Gyles and their new friends Penelope and Lord Kendall. Yet as her friendship with the Earl of Kendall grows, she must face her own fears of what it means to allow another man to manage the course of her life.
The Paris Footman (Kendall House #2)
A missing heiress. A trip to Paris. Can a gentleman-turned-footman convince the runaway beauty that at least one man in her life is worthy of trust?
When Gyles Audeley, a rose garden enthusiast, visits London with his mother, he never imagines that he will encounter the enchanting creature whom he met once-upon-a-time in a walled garden. Lady Louisa’s life is far from a fairy tale, however, and when she flees from her villainous uncle, Gyles determines to follow any way he can in order to keep her safe.
Louisa Lymington wants nothing more than to remain incognito as a governess until she reaches her twenty-first birthday. But when her safety is threatened, she determines to make her own way to her mother’s country of France. Try as she might, however, she can’t escape the presence of the chivalrous gardener she met long ago. And the longer he stays by her side, the more she begins to wonder if she truly wants him to leave….
The Derbyshire Dance (Kendall House #3)
An aimless life. An unsettled conscience. Can the gentlewoman next door bring a new sense of purpose to this duke run aground in Derbyshire?
Nigel Lymington, the new Duke of Warrenton, always played second fiddle to his elder brother’s wild exploits. After rising to the title himself, he tries to live up to his family’s rakish reputation, only to discover that he has neither the temperament nor the money to indulge in the wastrel Warrenton way of life.
While rusticating in Derbyshire, he encounters a gentlewoman named Miss Belinda Morrison who cares more about tenants and crop rotation than tittle-tattle and court connections. Can Nigel learn to plough a straight enough furrow to attract an honest woman of intelligence and industry? And will Bel Morrison set down her ledgers long enough to let him dance his way into her heart?
