Kindred Schemes

One bookish debutante. Two dashing suitors. And a season full of scandal.

Lady Alaina Sinclair never expected London society to be so treacherous—or so tempting. She has always preferred books to ballrooms, but with a disastrous start to her first season, she’s determined to rewrite her fate. With her heart set on the respectable—and very eligible—Duke of Ashford, Alaina is ready to embrace society’s expectations… even if it means silencing her true desires.

Alaina’s world is set awry by Christopher Kendall, the Marquess of Rochester—sharp-tongued, maddeningly handsome, and inconveniently, the duke’s closest friend. Their first encounter is a disaster. Their next, a temptation. And every moment together after that, increasingly impossible to ignore. But with a web of secrets, jealous relatives, and mysterious threats unraveling around her, it soon becomes clear: this is no ordinary season.

Kindred Schemes is a modern take on a regency romance with glamour, a steamy love triangle, and enough mystery to keep readers turning the page.

"The characters are colorful and sharply etched... the prose has a droll, Austen-esque verve to it, using pompously polite palaver to reveal the crassness of high society...In keeping with the style is the spirit of the book's message - that true love triumphs over mercenary calculation. Readers will root for the feisty Alaina to overcome the stuffed shirts and find her heart's desire...An entertaining period love story, nicely balancing breathless lust with social satire and high-mindedness." -Kirkus Reviews

"The story's central love triangle will delight romance fans... Harrington excels in crafting multidimensional characters... [A] satisfying blend of romance, intrigue, and character-driven storytelling." -BookLife Reviews

"Just the perfect blend of humor, romance, sizzle, and mystery to make the pages fly and the reader wait impatiently for the next book from this talented debut author." -Fran Lebowitz
