Mischief Matchmaking

Matchmaking leads to mischief at Rosings Park. While Lizzy is at Hunsford to visit Charlotte, she becomes good friends with Anne de Bourgh. Anne reveals a shocking secret collection of tawdry romance novels, and the women soon form their own book society. The merriment is interrupted by the arrival of Mr. Darcy and his cousin, Richard. Lizzy realizes Anne has a tendre for the dashing colonel, and Anne seems to think Lizzy is in love with Mr. Darcy. How perfectly preposterous. Mr. Darcy maintains his distrust of Jane’s feelings and believes Lizzy is pursuing the colonel. He is determined to thwart that, of course. Amid mischief and matchmaking from all sides, will there be a triple wedding in the future, or are Lizzy and Fitzwilliam too stubborn to admit their feelings and take steps toward a happy future? While Abbey sometimes writes sweet JAFF, this is strictly SENSUAL.

She's a hopeless romantic...for everyone but herself. Can the least romantic man alive convince her love isn't just for other people? Willow There are certain expectations when you're born into a multigenerational family of matchmakers, which is why I fled my hometown and tried to build a life of my own. But it turns out matchmaking is hard to quit, and I can't stop trying to match the customers at the bakery I manage-including my boss and the tea shop owner next door-even though I'm hopeless at love. So it seriously crimps my style when Alex Hunter starts coming around, working on his book at the bakery. He's hot, grumpy, and thinks romance is a dirty word. Worse, he keeps distracting our customers. He needs to go away. Which means someone needs to matchmake him. And I'm just the girl for the job. Alex I'm a writer who can't write, and lo and behold, I meet a matchmaker who's allergic to love. Me being me, I fall for her. Most of the people in this town seem insane, but I have to turn my frown upside down and show Willow Mayberry that matchmakers deserve love too.

Millie Fisher may be widowed, but she leads a full life in her Amish hometown of Harvest, Ohio. There’s her quilting circle, her Boer goats, her gift for matchmaking—and the occasional murder . . . Millie is happy that her childhood friend, Uriah Schrock, has returned to Harvest after decades away. He was sweet on Millie in their school days, but she only had eyes for her future husband. Now, there’s a new spark between them, so Millie is concerned when Uriah doesn’t show up at the Harvest concert series—or for his job as the Village square’s groundskeeper. Perhaps Millie has been involved in too many murder investigations, but she has a sinking feeling. And when she and her best friend, Lois, find Uriah with the police, it seems she’s right . . . A film crew is in Harvest to make a movie about a forty-year-old unsolved murder. A skeleton has been found at the bottom of a ravine—and Uriah is certain it’s his sister, Galilee. Right before Uriah left Ohio, she disappeared, and her harsh husband, Samuel, was found fatally stabbed with a knitting needle. The sheriff declared that Galilee killed him and ran away. Uriah never believed the theory, and he’s come back to Harvest hoping, Gott willing, Millie will help him stitch together the truth . . .

Matchmaking can be murder . . . When widowed Millie Fisher moves back to her childhood home of Harvest, Ohio, she notices one thing right away—the young Amish are bungling their courtships and marrying the wrong people! A quiltmaker by trade, Millie has nevertheless stitched together a few lives in her time, with truly romantic results. Her first mission? Her own niece, widowed gardener Edith Hochstetler, recently engaged to rude, greedy Zeke Miller. Anyone can see he’s not right for such a gentle young woman—except Edith herself. Pleased when she convinces the bride-to-be to leave her betrothed before the wedding, Millie is later panicked to find Zeke in Edith’s greenhouse—as dead as a tulip in the middle of winter. To keep her niece out of prison—and to protect her own reputation—Millie will have to piece together a patchwork of clues to find a killer, before she becomes the next name on his list . . .

Harlequin® Special Edition brings you four new titles for one great price, available now! These are heartwarming, romantic stories about life, love and family. This Special Edition box set includes: The Rancher Hits the Road (a Dawson Family Ranch novel) By Melissa Senate Nothing like a little road trip with a jilted bride. Ranch foreman Shane Dawson certainly hadn’t expected he’d be escorting the bride away from her wedding, but Ashley McCray was determined to track down her good-for-nothing runaway groom. Since widower Shane’s twin daughters were scheduled to visit family anyway, Shane offered Ashley a ride to seek her revenge. All he asked was that Ashley help turn his tomboy twins into temporary angels who could change the minds of his late wife’s parents about seeking custody. Seven hours on the road should have been enjoyable and uneventful. Except this romance-weary couple had more in common than they’d ever imagined… Her Second-Chance Family (a Seasons in Sudbury novel) By Elizabeth Bevarly Fate ended their romance the first time around. Has the time come to make amends? Tragedy—and an abusive, manipulative mother—destroyed Alice Whitlock’s high school romance with Finn Huxley. Reuniting with the handsome contractor years later to restore and sell her late mother’s home resurrects their strong bond. But when Finn discovers he has a young daughter from a previous marriage who is now orphaned without him, Alice is forced to relive the pain she felt when she lost their baby all those years ago…and lost Finn in the process. Will the heartbreak of her past—and her shock over Finn’s previous marriage—destroy their second chance for the family she always dreamed of? A Cape Cod Summer (a Winsome Cove novel) By Jo McNally When it comes to love, there’s always something cooking. If Lexi Bellamy had to describe Winsome Cove, she would say the little Cape Cod town is tired and stuck in its ways. Like its men—or at least Sam Knight, the handsome New Englander who irritates the "Midwest nice" right out of the former five-star chef. Looking for a reset after her ex-fiancé all but ruined her career and reputation, Lexi agrees to spend the summer rebranding Sam’s family’s run-down restaurant. Yet Lexi faces resistance from Sam with every change. And the best way to keep from bickering…is kissing. Even so, Sam doesn’t trust her big-city ways. Can Lexi convince Sam that—like a good surf and turf—they’re made for each other? It Started with a Secret (a Spirit of the Shenandoah novel) By Tif Marcelo When one unforgettable night . . . Leads to a whole new life . . . When Jared Sotheby arrives in Peak, Virginia, to search for his identity—and his Filipino roots—he doesn’t anticipate an instant connection with a stunning woman he meets on his first night in town. And he certainly doesn’t expect her to be managing the B & B owned by the biological family he’s searching for! One passionate night aside, Matilda Matthews needs a cook, and Jared, a chef, needs a way in. She’ll give him the job if he keeps his identity a secret—for now. Their subterfuge quickly grows complicated as Jared yearns for a connection—not only with his family, but also with the once-bitten Matilda. But first he’ll have to convince her to let a younger man into her heart…

It’s my birthday, so I guess I can cry if I want to…but after everything goes disastrously wrong at my celebration dinner with my twin, I’d rather make out with my enemy. I mean, he’s a known man whore, so I might as well have some fun, right? Wrong, because even if I want to hate Cole Garrison, I don’t. I’m Holly Mayberry, a professional matchmaker who sucks at love. A prequel to Matchmaking a Billionaire and Matchmaking a Single Dad.
