Society's most exclusive invitation...

Welcome to the Phoenix Club, where London's most audacious, disreputable, and intriguing ladies and gentlemen find scandal, redemption, and second chances.

INTOLERABLE

Every three years, like clockwork, Ruark Hannigan, Earl of Wexford loses his heart. Alas, he promised his father he wouldn't marry until the age of thirty so that he'd be certain in his choice. When his best friend's sister needs him to pose as a potential suitor to garner attention on the Marriage Mart, he's the perfect candidate—if only he hadn't kissed her in secret.

Lady Cassandra Westbrook can't forget the incident between her and Wexford, and she's having a devil of a time focusing on finding a husband. The fact that her father intimidates every gentleman has made her quest intolerable, and her two brothers who could help are proving completely worthless. But if she doesn't settle on someone, her father will arrange an "acceptable" marriage by the end of the Season.

Finally, Cassandra has a chance at courtship, but, frustratingly, it's not with the impulsive and irresistible Irishman her father detests and she desires. However, when Ruark sees the woman he passionately wants—despite his better judgment—swept into the arms of another man, the prospect of losing her becomes intolerable.

INDECENT

If Bennet St. James, the Viscount Glastonbury, doesn't find a bride with a sizeable dowry, he'll be in the poorhouse along with his interminable number of female relatives—all of whom he loves but are a drain on the negative fortune his father left when he died of a broken pocketbook. Desperate, he hatches a scheme to snare an heiress only to be foiled by a most vexing and alluring—and unfortunately equally destitute—paid companion.

Lady's companion Prudence Lancaster is single-minded about finding her mother and filling in the missing pieces of her life. But a villainous viscount interrupts her plans, and his surprising charm and understanding tempts her in the most indecent ways. Soon, she's dreaming of the future instead of wallowing in the past.

But when Bennet shares a dark secret, her hopes are dashed. For he won't break the promise he made to his family, even if it means losing the greatest love he's ever known.
