Robert Thorne would prefer not to get married. He enjoys his life: a viscount's younger brother, a lighthearted rake, fond of men and women and sensational novels. Unfortunately, tonight's ball is intended to celebrate his engagement. And his intended husband comes with a fortune, enough to repair the Thorne family's failing finances and secure their future. But they've barely spoken two words to each other, and the young man's very shy and very innocent — someone Robert's brother's chosen for him, not the person Robert wants.
But the person Robert wants is exactly the person he shouldn't: Anthony, his secretary. Anthony's the best and most organized part of Robert's life — and off-limits, because Anthony's employed by the family to keep an eye on him ...
Anthony Price has two secrets. Everyone knows that his family used to be wealthy, and that Anthony's needed to find employment to support himself and his mother and sister. But no one knows that he has another life — and...]]> Mon, 31 Aug 2020 15:01:35 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/690531-flashes.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/690531-flashes.html

Colin is not having the best time lately, being a runaway shifter with a less than stellar reputation, hiding beneath a car in the pouring rain hoping to evade the angry warlock looking for him.David's had a long day; being the local white witch and healer is a worthwhile occupation, but it's rarely an easy one.

Blake Thornton — or, as rumor likes to call him, the Earl of Thorns — has a secret. Or two.
London society knows Blake as an adventurer and traveler. His tales and memoirs have made him a celebrity. But when Blake thinks of home, he thinks of his best friend Ashley Linden, brilliant Oxford scholar of classical poetry — and the man Blake's been silently in love with for years.
But Blake's discovered feelings for someone else as well: Cameron Fraser, the handsome Scottish doctor he's met on his travels, who knows him like no one ever has. Blake doesn't expect to see Cam again, despite how much he'd like to.
But when he returns home to find Ashley ill, Blake has a reason to send for Cam, and together, Blake, Ash, and Cam will discover a new adventure.]]> Sat, 31 Aug 2024 15:01:34 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/618972-spells_and_sensibility.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/618972-spells_and_sensibility.html
Theodore Burnett has never been a hero. He prefers comfort to combat-spells, and jam-slathered scones to muddy boots. Fortunately, as the youngest-ever head librarian at the Royal College of Wizardry, Theo can spend his days with books and bibliomancy in place of battle-magic or politics — and in any case Napoleon's been defeated and the war's been won.
But now there's a wounded captain of the Magicians' Corps in Theo's library. And he needs Theo's help. And Theo can never resist a mystery, especially when that mystery's tall and tempting and handsome.
Captain Henry Tourmaline, formerly of His Majesty's Army and the Magicians' Corps, requires assistance. He's returned to London with scars on his body, soul, and heart — war, after all, will do that to anyone. But one of those scars refuses to heal, a curse that's slowly draining Henry's magic and eventually his life. The physicians have no answers, so Henry turns to the College's books ... and the College's attractive head...]]> Sun, 23 Oct 2022 10:51:01 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/494456-sorceress.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/494456-sorceress.html

A very long time ago, in the very old forests of Brittany, a werewolf loved a king ...
The Lord Bisclavret has a secret. A family enchantment. A wolf's curse, transforming him when the moon is full. He hopes to be a good lord for his people, and he's always been a loyal king's man, even if the new king is inexperienced and scholarly. But one betrayal might leave him trapped in wolf-shape forever ... unless his king can save him.
Andreas would rather be a University scholar than a king, and has no interest in a royal marriage — desire's always come slowly, if at all. But he loves his kingdom, so he'll try to protect it, even when rumors of a man-killing wolf spread across his land. He'll pick up a sword and go out on a hunt, and hope to keep his people safe.
But the wolf has the eyes of a man, and the scholar-king's knowledge of folklore and fairy-stories might break a werewolf's curse ... with the help of love.
Very loosely based on the twelfth-century story by Marie...]]> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 16:45:16 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/575163-a_demon_for_forever.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/575163-a_demon_for_forever.html
A demon, a rock star, and wedding bells!
Justin Moore and Kris Starr have their happy ending: a life together, full of magic and music. Justin's always wanted to get married, and ever since Kris proposed, he's thrown himself into wedding planning. But planning a wedding's not easy when the whole world's watching their choices — including whether to invite Kris's estranged father.
Kris wants Justin to have that perfect day. He'll support the man he loves, whether that means agreeing to carrot cake or writing a new love song or getting excited when Justin shyly wants to wear a wedding dress. But Justin also wants him to reconcile with his father. And Kris loves Justin.
So, with their wedding weeks away, Kris will try to face the ghosts of his past ... with his demon at his side.]]> Mon, 03 Feb 2020 12:00:23 +0200 https://library.land/k-l-noone/690532-a_prophecy_for_two.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/690532-a_prophecy_for_two.html

After three years of fighting in the service of his mercenary company, Eoan's ready to lay down his sword and return home. He's seen enough war and destruction and ruined villages; he only wants to find someplace peaceful and warm where he can figure out a new life.
But he's a long way from home, in the pouring rain. And rumor says the forest around him contains inhuman magical creatures such as dragons, garwolves, fairies, and sprites. He should be safe if he doesn't leave the path ... but fairies have ways of tempting weary travelers.
Julian hadn't actually meant to entice the tired soldier from the path. He'd only been playing music for himself, and it's been so long since he's introduced himself to anyone, he barely recalls his own name. But now he has a human in his forest, and Eoan clearly needs care and comfort and healing.
Healing requires closeness, and Eoan's fascinating, complicated and heart-sore and strong. And Julian's been very lonely for a very long time....]]> Sat, 04 May 2019 08:41:03 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/691187-frost_and_raine.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/691187-frost_and_raine.html
A Frost spirit who runs a coffee shop. A Cupid who works as a divorce lawyer. And magic in the air ...
Raine's never been a conventional Cupid. He likes organization, his job as a successful lawyer, and black coffee, and he dislikes messiness, physical and emotional. He tries hard not to use his powers, because he'd rather not manipulate anyone's desires, and he's not planning to fall in love himself — and he wouldn't trust it if someone fell in love with him. But the owner of Raine's favorite coffee shop is endlessly patient, kind even in the face of sarcasm, and an artist with flavors and window decorations ... and he could even challenge Raine's resolutions about love.
Don enjoys his life. Even though he's a Frost, he finds comfort in giving people warmth: good coffee, a cozy refuge from the rain, holiday decorations, and overall cheer. But one gorgeous Cupid seems immune to Don's cheerfulness — and he keeps coming back, day after day. Fortunately, Don's always liked a...]]> Sun, 25 Jul 2021 23:30:59 +0300 https://library.land/k-l-noone/469958-kit_and_harry.html https://library.land/k-l-noone/469958-kit_and_harry.html
Someone — or something — is causing magical blizzards at Fairleigh Hall. The estate is suffering, and the Earl has requested assistance.
Constable Kit Thompson, of Bow Street's Preternatural Division, isn't especially thrilled to be sent out to the country. At least the assignment gets him away from fashionable London society and his own unwanted celebrity after successfully solving a notorious case. Of course, he's now trapped at a country estate due to closed roads, snowstorms, and magic, but Kit's always liked solving puzzles. He's good at using empathic skills for investigations, and this is definitely a challenge. Besides, the Earl's younger brother is an irritating and delicious temptation, all blue eyes and muscles and boundless enthusiastic optimism. Kit wants to either shake sense into him or kiss him senseless — and can't trust him, either, because if someone's genuinely sabotaging the weather, everyone's a suspect.
