Bachelors for life!
Friends since school, brothers in arms, bachelors for life!
At least that’s what The Four Disgraces—Alex Tempest, Grant Rivers, Cris de Feaux and Gabriel Stone—believe. But when they meet four feisty women who are more than a match for their wild ways these Lords are tempted to renounce bachelordom for good.
Don’t miss this dazzling new quartet by
Louise Allen
Read Alex Tempest’s story in
His Housekeeper’s Christmas Wish
And Grant Rivers’s story in
His Christmas Countess Coming December 2015
Look out for Cris and Gabriel’s stories, coming soon!
Enter the world of four close friends: aristocrats known in their university days as The Four Disgraces, now very much grown up—and considerably more dangerous! This is the story of the first of them, Alex Tempest, Viscount Weybourn, a man hiding a wounded heart behind a cynical façade. Alex would never describe himself as a knight errant, but when he rescues Tess Ellery from her personal dragons he finds his self-sufficiency is no protection against a woman determined to heal those wounds—and even make him love Christmas in the process of turning his life upside down. As for his heart… Well, you’ll have to read the book to find out!
Next month will bring His Christmas Countess, the story of the second friend, Grant Rivers, who acquires a title and a new family all in the course of one very dark Christmas. And still to come are the stories of the other two—cool, reserved Cris de Feaux, Marquess of Avenmore, a man who has no intention of allowing any woman anywhere near his broken heart, and rake, gambler and walking scandal Gabriel Stone, Earl of Edenbridge, who would deny he even has a heart to be broken.
I hope you enjoy discovering how my four heroes discover the loves of their lives as much as I enjoyed writing their stories.
