Collection: Bookshelves and Ballrooms

Eyes lock across the crowded ballroom, a royal string quartet playing soft ambient dance music while couples sweep across the polished hardwood floor. 

A moment stolen in the corner of the garden, improper for a lady, but still the heart quickens at the very notion of this nobleman's affections.

With dawn approaching and all hope of slumber lost for the night, a thought-filled wander through the nearby field to watch the sun raise and ponder becomes a declaration of love and dedication from a nobleman who had a thawing heart and a clear conscience. 

With this collection, Bookshelves and Ballrooms, we honour the love stories of strong women born before their time and the men that choose to love them. If you love stories told be the likes of Jane Austen, Julia Quinn or Sarah M. Eden, if you long for your Mr Darcy, Viscount Bridgerton or Duke of Kielder, Bookshelves and Ballrooms is a collection after your heart.
