About this series
New York, 1897. The study of insects has been Cecilia Downing's lifelong passion, but when both her professional and domestic hopes are dashed, she finds herself wondering if she is an entomologist—or merely an entomologist's discarded mistress? Cecilia retreats to her family's home in the Hudson Valley to rest, regroup, and maybe research ant species, only to find that her uncle has hired her childhood friend to redesign the estate grounds.
Daniel Carter hasn't seen Cecilia in nearly twenty years, and—thanks to the terrible stray dog he's definitely not adopting—their reunion is a rocky one. His work at her uncle's estate is the project which will catapult his landscape design career to the next level, and he's not about to let Cecilia, or his growing attraction to her, derail his work.
The more time Cecilia spends with Daniel, the more intrigued she is. Her childhood playmate has grown up handsome and clever, with a wicked talent for rhymes, but the innocence of their childhood days is long gone. Can Cecilia risk letting her guard down, or will she once again find herself advancing a man's career at the expense of her own?

Unfortunately, she has no idea what she wants. All she's sure of is that she'll do anything to escape the horrible earl her mother insists she marry…even if it means compromising herself with her brother's handsome best friend… W. Clifton is always ready to rescue a damsel in distress. And even though the lovely Octavia is suddenly unwilling to confess why she sought him out in the first place, he has no intention of letting her fend for herself. So, he'll uncover what's troubling her and resolve the issue. But the longer he spends in her company, the more personal—and less chivalrous—his reasons for wanting to save her become… Somewhere between clandestine meetings, scandalous desires, and potential insurance fraud, will Octavia recognize true love when she sees it? Or will she lose her shot a happily ever after with Clif forever?

Worcester, Massachusetts, 1897. Regina Prince needs money. Without an investor to get her father's bicycle motor company up and running, she and her younger sisters will soon be going without food, let alone the fripperies of fashion. The only financier to return her letters is a man she's sure she hates—which means she has no hesitation about blackmailing him. Walter Ellis needs to find a worthwhile investment opportunity before his father demotes him to a mail clerk, or worse. The Prince Velomotor Company might be small, but there's potential in both the motors and the fierce determination of the founder's daughter. He can't remember exactly what he did to offend Regina, but once the woman starts ordering him around, he finds that he wants to prove himself to her even more than he wants his father's approval. Regina travels to New York with Walter, so she can make sure he's fulfilling his side of their bargain. Soon, though, she's acting as his fiancée—and wishing there was more truth to the relationship. As the web of blackmail, extortion, and family obligations around them grows ever more tangled, will Regina and Walter ever be able to find a clear path to a future together?
