Lester Family

In The Reasons for Marriage, Lenore Lester was perfectly content with her quiet country life, caring for her father, and having no desire for marriage. She took steps to remain inconspicuous and tried her best to show indifference—but no avail! The irresistible Duke of Eversleigh had found her out and was quite persistent in his affections...

In A Lady of Expectations, Jack Lester had to find a bride...but where could he find the perfect woman to accept him as he was: devilishly handsome, responsible and poor as a church mouse! If he publicized his hidden wealth, disaster would certainly follow Sophie Winterton was everything he desired—and more. But Sophie knew that Jack needed to marry into wealth in order to run his family's estate. How would he convince her that she was the woman he wanted—and that he could be the husband she deserved?

In An Unwilling Conquest, Harry Lester has no intention of falling for a woman again, let alone being ensnared by the trap of marriage. Now, with a large inheritance to his name, Harry knows that he'd best start running from London's matchmaking mothers and widows. Harry heads to Newmarket, only to encounter Mrs. Lucinda Babbacombe, a beautiful, independent widow. And before he knows it, Harry vows to protect Lucinda from the town full of lonely gambling men, despite her refusal to accept his countless offers of help.
