Cover Reveal and New Book

Check Out this Rugged Cover!

Eloisa returns to her Accidental Brides series with Hardly a Gentleman, a romance about a forced marriage between a feisty heroine and a Scottish laird… neither of whom have plans to marry, let alone fall in love.

What happens when Miss Clara Vetry throws herself into a carriage headed for the Highlands, pretending to be a housekeeper named Mrs. Potts? Stay tuned for an exclusive excerpt from Eloisa.

If you read book 1, Viscount in Love, you’ll recognize sunny Clara, Torie’s best friend, who designs those adorable reticules in the shape of kitty’s faces, with whiskers.

Due out on April 29, 2025 in ebook, print, and audiobook, you can preorder now.

Are you in the mood for a new hilarious, sexy convenient marriage story? Two Lies and a Lord, Eloisa’s 4th book in her Seduction series, is now waiting for you in Kindle, print, or audio!

This is the story of Daisy, an impetuous young lady who fibs to save a child from an orphanage—and ends up married as a result. Read or listen to Chapter One, then order your copy today.

(Please note: This story first appeared on the serialized Amazon Vella platform as The Seduction: Daisy [Episodes 90-118]. The book has been lightly edited, but the story remains the same.)
