A Marriage for the Marquess by Ruth A. Casie

Dear Readers and Fellow Adventurers

– A NEW SERIES!

I’m thrilled to share my new series with you! I’ve been waiting to share it with you, Barrington’s Brigade. This series promises to be an epic journey of duty, devotion, and love. Here’s an overview to whet your appetite:

From duty to devotion to their King, their Country, and the women that they love.

Against the dramatic backdrop of the Peninsular War, the lives of six courageous retired officers unfold in a world markedly different from the one they knew. These seasoned men soon realize that their most significant challenges extend far beyond the battlefield.

United by an unbreakable bond and led by their revered commander, Lord Barrington, these officers proudly don the title of “Barrington’s Brigade.” Their commitment transcends the chaos of war as they pledge unwavering support not only to Barrington’s service for England but also to each other. Together, they embark on a journey to overcome both the visible and concealed scars of war, navigating a society on the brink of profound social and cultural transformations.

Tied by a loyalty beyond question, these extraordinary comrades stand ready to support each other in times of need. A distinctive gold coin becomes the symbol of their unwavering brotherhood, commemorates their unbreakable bond, and serves as a unique calling card—summoning their assistance whenever it is presented.

Step into a world where honor, loyalty, and love intertwine as the remarkable men of Barrington’s Brigade and the women who captivate their hearts traverse the intricacies of Regency society, forging their paths to happily ever afters.

🪙A Marriage for the Marquess🪙

In a world of secrets, love, and ticking clocks,
their alliance of convenience may just become a marriage of the heart.

Ewan, the Marquess of Glenraven, finds himself returning to his home in Belgrave Square, summoned back to London by his former commanding officer, Lord Barrington. Ewan’s been entrusted with the task of unraveling a deceitful gambling scheme and uncovering the truth behind the mysterious deaths tied to it. He is also faced with a pressing personal ultimatum: either secure his trust by marrying by his 28th birthday, six weeks hence or risk losing it all.

In Marylebone, on the other side of Belgrave Square, Miss Juliet Hayward carries the heavy burden of her late brother’s gambling debts. Her own future teeters on the brink of destitution. Determined to confront the man who has her brother’s vowels and control of her survival, she’s resolved to find him and negotiate a solution.

As Ewan and Juliet are drawn together, they conceal their true intentions, not knowing they both seek the one person who holds the cards for both of them. However, time is not on their side. In a bold move, they confess to each other and devise a plan—a marriage of convenience, a calculated business arrangement—to simultaneously fulfill Ewan’s inheritance requirement, settle Juliet’s brother’s debts, and expose the scheming ringleader. Yet, a single kiss on their wedding day unleashes a deluge of conflicting emotions within Ewan, shattering his carefully constructed façade. This is a breathtaking Regency tale of love, sacrifice, and the resilience of the human spirit.
