12 The Ideal Bride (2004) – 15hrs 2min
Michael Anstruther-Wetherby is a rising member of Parliament – a man destined for power. Aristocratic, elegant, and effortlessly charming, he is just arrogant enough to captivate the interest of the ladies of the ton. And with his connections to the wealthy and influential Cynster family – his sister is married to Devil Cynster, the Duke of St. Ives – his future appears assured. Except that Michael lacks the single most important element of success, a wife. Political pressure sends him searching for his ideal bride, a gently bred, malleable young lady, preferably with a political background. Michael discovers such a paragon but finds a formidable obstacle in his path – the young lady’s beautiful, strong-minded aunt, Caroline Sutcliffe. Caro has style and status but, having lived through an unhappy political marriage, wants nothing of the sort for her niece, who has already lost her heart to another. So Caro and the younger woman hatch a plot – Caro will demonstrate why an inexperienced young lady is not the bride for Michael. She succeeds in convincing him that what he really needs is a lady of experience by his side. And the perfect candidate right under his nose – Caro herself. But then a series of mysterious, and dangerous, accidents befall Caro – an assailant has stepped in with their own idea for Caro’s future – one that could involve murder

13 The Truth About Love (2005) – 15hrs 30min
Gerrard Debbington is one of the chosen few – the gentlemen who’ve learned their social and amorous skills at the feet of the masters. Handsome and wealthy, protégé and brother-in-law of Vane Cynster, Gerrard is part of the charmed Cynster family circle. One of the most eligible gentlemen in the ton, Gerrard is besieged by offers from London’s most sought-after beauties, but as the ton’s foremost artistic lion, there’s only one offer he wants to accept – the chance to paint the fantastical but seldom-seen gardens of reclusive Lord Tregonning’s Hellebore Hall. That chance is dangled before Gerrard, but to grasp it he must fulfill Lord Tregonning’s demand that he also create an open and honest portrait of the man’s daughter. Gerrard loathes the idea of wasting his time and talents on some simpering miss, but with no alternative, he agrees…Only to discover that Jacqueline Tregonning inspires him as no other lady has. But something is horribly wrong at Hellebore Hall. Evil lurks in the beautiful gardens and along the rambling pathways. And that evil reaches out to ensnare Jacqueline, trapping her in a web of insidious whispers – whispers that paint her as a double murderess.
