Publisher's summary

Discover now how the USA Today best-selling series begins.

Returning from Europe, Ann learns she is to marry a man of her father’s choosing once they arrive in New York. Refusing, she runs away, although she can’t go far on a steam ship. Only as far as the stateroom of a very handsome soldier.

There’s only one guaranteed way to save a woman from a bad marriage, and that’s to marry her himself. Ann is surprised Robert will go to such lengths to protect her, but stunned when she won’t just be marrying him, but his fellow soldier, Andrew, as well.

I like the basis of the story

I like the basis of the story. The double guy thing isn’t for me but if it were a man with double female…. Probably a little more exciting

Born in the wrong century

I found this story to be entirely captivating that had me frantically wishing to be transported into the character Ann's place. The narration was so delightfully exciting, as if I could envision the entire book playing visually across my mind.

Short, Sexy & Fun

It's just hot and fun. A super short story with steamy sex and just enough plot to not feel guilty.

Yes Please! 🔥🔥

I love how the guys went after their girl. I love their over protectiveness. Her father is an ass. I can't wait for the other stories in this series.

oh my effing gosh!

all I can say is thank you Ms vale. I have searched high and low for a new author to captivate me with their genius mind and yours albeit talented is beautifully sexy and very enthralling. I was gone from "this is audible" lol. so many authors on here have good books but the narrator is bad or the book is not enticing enough but the narration is good. you Ms vale have done a great job with the both. I only wish your books were longer.

Quick and Dirty - Just How I like It!

Have you ever had a quickly?? Well, this prequel and the subsequent novellas are just that….hot, unexpected, thrilling, dirty and oohhh so satisfying. If you’re looking for three chapters of backstory, followed by chapters of characters doubting and sabotaging their lust for each other, blah blah blah, then listen to those books. This is a novella; short on details and scenery but full of lust and MFM action.
