01 Amelia and the Viscount

Length: 2 hrs and 34 mins
Release date: 10-17-17

“No eligible bachelor wants to marry a bluestocking…especially not those frightful Chadwick girls.” (Lady Jersey, Almacks Patroness)

Amelia’s writing was often prone to getting her into trouble. Hence why she eventually took on a pen name. But it seems, once again, her unthinking need to spill out everything onto paper will land her in hot water.

After her sisters persuade her the only way to get over her love for Lord Nicholas Wentworth is to write about him, Amelia devotes hours and hours of ink to the subject. However, she never expects for Nicholas to end up in possession of this information. How could she admit her affection for him when she knows full well he is still in love with her now married sister?

To save herself embarrassment - and, more importantly, to keep her pen name hidden - Amelia must find a way to intercept these letters, and, if she cannot, she must persuade Nicholas it was all some awful jest and that she is certainly not A. Hardwick - purveyor of stories so scandalous that it would mean utter ruination for all the Chadwick girls should the truth come out.

02 Julia and the Duke

“One of them might now be a viscountess, but it does not clear the taint of scandal from those frightful Chadwick girls. Why we must deign to entertain them, I will never know!” - Lady Bromsley, Countess of Marlbury

A new duke moving into their sleepy village doesn’t interest Julia, especially when she hears all about his scandalous behavior in London. Rumors of gambling debts, illicit liaisons, and pub brawls surround the far-too-handsome Duke of Weston. And the far-too-handsome duke happens to want to build a mill on her favorite nature spot, meaning Julia’s beloved otters will be homeless.

No matter what she says, the stubborn man will not back down, but this bluestocking will not give up easily. With the help of her sisters, she must find a way to persuade him to make money another way. If only the far-too-handsome duke did not seem to enjoy riling her so much. If only he would not insist on getting under her skin and pretending to be interested in her. All this talk of liking redheads and freckles will not make her forget those animals in need…. Will it?

03 Emma and the Earl

Length: 3 hrs and 19 mins
Release date: 03-02-18

“I never considered freckles and red hair to be an enticement, but with those connections, the remaining Chadwick sisters have become quite the prospect for the bachelor about town. I flatter myself with the knowledge, however, that they will never be truly accepted by the ton. Not with such displeasing and unladylike temperaments.” (Lady Hampton, Duchess of Bromley)

With a duke and a viscount for brothers-in-law, Emma has found herself subject to increasing attention from the many eligible men of the ton. A new experience for this redheaded, freckled bluestocking, who would rather be doing something else - anything else - than dancing with men who are only interested in her connections.
Marriage is not for her.

At least it was not. Until a certain Lord Radcliff - and a true rake - decided to accidentally ruin her. Well, perhaps neither of them quite envisioned ending up twined in such a mess that the only way to save her reputation - and that of her younger sister - was to marry the man. The Earl of Radcliff is a practical stranger to her, but she is prepared to make the best of her situation. After all, she is nothing if not a quick learner. Perhaps she can learn to be a successful wife and countess.

Unfortunately, the earl is hiding a few secrets. She’s not sure what they are, but one of those secrets is causing a strong hatred of the country, and that just will not do. Emma hates London and is prepared to do anything to remain in the country with her family and friends. Somehow, while dealing with all the new adventures and, um, desires a marriage can bring, she must persuade her new husband that the country life is for them.

These were not my rip. I just put them in one collection. My thanks to the original uploader.
