Awesome collection.
Everything that I loved in the first collection in this series is in this next collection too. There is suspense, blackmail, and lies. There is love and romance too but the characters they are what kept me captivated they were splendid so well written and it was so easy to get lost in their stories. This is a great display of this author wonderful work. I did receive a free copy of this book from Booksprout and voluntarily chose to review it.

Three exciting tales with toe-curling passion and heart-pumping action. The villians are sadistic and despicable. The heroes are hunks who can handle themselves in a fight and the bedroom. The heroines are fiesty, loyal and strong. These stories are full of secrets, deceit, danger and passion. They are fast-paced, entertaining, and difficult to put down! Such a good collection!
The Earl’s Secret Bride
Oh my….a forced betrothal, an evil marquess, dastardly deeds, danger, and a trip to Gretna Green. In this story, a lovely lady named Rosamonde gets to marry her hero, Richard, but not before she is forced to endure the attentions of a sadistic neighbor. Rosamonde is such a sympathetic character, as she is put in an impossible position due to her father’s deal with the devil. However, her brother Avery, and his best friend Richard, step in to save the day. This is not the first time Richard, the Earl of Winterly, rescues Rosamonde, but hopefully it will be the last. Their chemistry leaps off the page and provides us with a few rather steamy encounters. This story moves quickly, and although it has some horrifying surprises, the ending is adorable and enticing.
The Prince’s Bride
Anteros and Olivia
Well this will get your motor running! Surprises, secrets, capture, confinement and passion…lots of passion. For Olivia it was love at first sight when she first met Anteros, aka The Cobra. He was dashing, mysterious, and he saved members of her family. For Anteros, Captain Bourbon, Olivia was a special friend, but due to his questionable actvities and his life at sea fighting the French, he vowed never to take a wife. When his father demanded that he marry a certain sixteen year old, he persuaded him to let him marry Olivia. Of course, his father didn’t need to know that it would be a fake emgagememt and wedding. And so begins an adventure-packed story filled with danger and despair. This story has multiple villians, and two rather unexpected heroes in Wills and Violet. The conflict is both internal and external, but the friendship, passion and love are all very real. Loved it!
The Pirate’s Bride
Anteros and Olivia
Wow! When an enemy plans to capture Olivia in order to bring down Anteros, the seer Shira devises a plan to thwart him. However, for this plan to work, Anteros and his nemesis‘s son Nazari need to work together, and to make matters more difficult, Nazari can’t tell Anteros all the particulars of the plan. This is a story of a dangerous adventure, where trust is in short supply and lives hang in the balance. Horrors are revealed, scores are settled, and in the end, love prevails. There is even a tee-up for the next book in the series. It is quite exciting!.

This enjoyable collection of three previously published books by the author concludes the stories of the remaining Trentbury siblings Richard and Olivia (Regency Brides 4-6).
I liked the different plots with its engaging characters, witty banters, passionate love scenes and the suspense.
I like the author’s narrative, especially the way she describes the featured venues and events. I am also impressed by her accurate historical research and by the way she interweaves true historical events and characters with her fiction.
If you like different amusing, steamy and suspenseful storylines, you will certainly enjoy this collection.

The Earls Secret Bride: With a tense past/situation between Rosamonde’s family and the Marquess of Ross, it is not surprising that a protective and enamoured childhood friend would step in to assist her. A dark questionable past, arranged marriage and young love alll come together to make an interesting story.
The Prince’s Bride: Anteros and Olivia had been introduced in previous stories as supporting characters. With enough hints of an impending connection it was interesting to see all of the details of their story unfold. So many secrets! While truths are revealed piece by piece, I enjoyed seeing some of the foretold future items evolve to be reality. Sweet, steamy adventure with a HEA-what more could one ask for!
Her Pirate Prince: This was an extension of the previous story focussed on Olivia and Anteros. Apparently responsibilities and threats to the crown prince are ongoing! An evolving vision by the Seer put so many things in motion involving several different known and unknown characters. I enjoyed the mysterious approach-where each character involved in the vision only could know their role without sharing the larger plan with everyone. It was interesting watching the plan play out, with a hint of a story involving Alessandro at the end.

Collections are great, and in this series, all the characters, places, and situations are all related by an over arching thread but each story is it's own. These books can be read as stand-alone but when read back to back you start to see the common themes and similarities that tie them all together. While no one story stood out for me more than the others, I will comment that Joanne Wadsworth is a great writer. Her prose is solid and she weaves some very good tales with intrigues, baddies, twists and turns, HEA's and romance. And it all ties together beautifully. I highly recommend any of her novels and if you can get them in the sets, it is such a bonus!.

This was a great boxed set filled with books 4-6 of the Regency Brides series. The character work and story line of each book was well written and kept me coming back for more. Job well done for Joanne Wadsworth.

Wonderful stories in which the characters overflow into the stories. And even though the 2nd story has a happy ending, it wasn't finished yet what you can read in the 3rd story. Beautiful romantic scenes with spice! Historical novels with a hint of danger.

I really enjoyed the continuation of the family stories. The last 2 with Captain Bourbon, gave a bigger licence for the storyline as it is set mostly outside of the UK, and more freedom of action. These 2 must be read in order. I look forward to reading about the some of the other characters that have come along.
