ABOUT The Confidential Life of Eugenia Cooper
Roman Holiday meets Mary Poppins in this Gilded Age tale of Eugenia “Gennie” Cooper, a New York socialite who takes advantage of a rare opportunity to step into the world of the dime novels she secretly loves. From the splendor of Fifth Avenue’s mansions to the gilded homes of Denver silver barons and the rugged Leadville mines, Gennie’s adventure as a governess soon becomes a love story despite the rocky start she has with widower Daniel Beck and his daughter Charlotte.
ABOUT Anna Finch and the Hired Gun
Anna Finch’s father desperately wants to marry her off, but Anna’s not having much success, mostly because she’s much better at the written word than the spoken word. When she’s around an eligible man, she becomes completely tongue-tied. It doesn’t help that the awful man at the newspaper taunts her with constant mentions in his “Perish the Thought” gossip column.
When Anna encounters the infamous lawman and outlaw Wyatt Earp, she sees her chance to finally achieve her dream of becoming a reporter. In this capacity, she finds love and trouble in equal measure when she convinces the dying gunfighter Doc Holliday to tell her his story. Her freedom to meet with Holliday is hampered, however, by Pinkerton agent Jeb Sanders, who’s been hired to keep an eye on her–and keep her away from nobleman and notorious playboy Edwin Beck. Once Jeb realizes what Anna’s up to, his annoyance at being forced to babysit a rich girl is swamped by his need to exact revenge on Doc Holliday.
As the reporter and the detective get more tangled in Doc Holliday’s story and each other, will their opposing goals tear
them apart–or bring them together?
ABOUT The Inconvenient Marriage of Charlotte Beck
Charlotte Beck wants to go to college, but her father would rather she get married and spend her days painting. Alex Hambly’s aristocratic family is in financial straits, and he has two options: either sell off the family’s Colorado silver mine or marry a rich, American heiress. Charlotte’s father makes them a deal: he’ll allow Charlotte to go to college and be the instrument of Alex’s financial salvation on one condition–that they agree to get married. Seeing no way out, Charlotte and Alex find themselves engaged. They agree that they’ll have the marriage annulled as soon as possible and go back to their own lives. Except Alex isn’t sure he wants the annulment. He sets out to woo his wife for real, and Charlotte suddenly finds that her marriage has become very inconvenient indeed.
