About this ebook

Because love, no matter how hard won, is always worth fighting for.


One thing never changes from era to era—the longing for love and the sacrifices willingly made to achieve a happily ever after. This special romance collection includes THREE STORIES of dukes and their ladies; each a charming and humorous Regency romance with a dash of mystery & suspense.


A Diamond for a Duke:

A dour duke and a wistful wallflower—an impossible match until fate intervenes. Jules, the Duke of Dandridge wants more than Jemmah Dament’s sweet kisses or her warming his bed. He must somehow convince her to gamble on a man who’s sworn never to love again.


Only a Duke Would Dare:

A reluctant duke. A vicar’s daughter. A forbidden love. Victor, Duke of Sutcliffe ventures home, intent upon finding the most biddable and forgettable miss in Essex to wed. Except he finds himself powerless to resist Theadosia Brentwood—even if she is promised to another and the exact opposite of what he thought he wanted in a duchess.


A December with a Duke:

He’s entirely the wrong sort of man. That’s what makes him so utterly right. After a horrific marriage, Everleigh vows to never marry again, but the enigmatic Duke of Sheffield is determined to woo the beautiful widow and make her his own.

This is a wonderful set of stories that will touch your heart and make you smile, laugh, and cry (just a little). A Diamond for a Duke A Diamond for a Duke is the retelling of a Cinderella-like story by Charles Perrault entitled Toads and Diamonds. The story has all the elements of a good fairy tale, a sweet damsel (Jemma), a gallant rescuer (Jules, Duke of Dandridge), villains and fairy godmothers to thwart them. Is it possible that these two childhood friends can find their HEA with each other? Aunt Theo and Lady Lockhart, aka the fairy godmothers in this tale, think so and embark on a plan to make it happen. It’s easy to pick out the toads in Jemmah’s sister, Adelinda, and Lady Phryne Milbourne. I look at Jules’s family and Jemmah’s mother as bullfrogs. Then there’s Jemmah who has always loved Jules, and sparkles like a, yes a diamond. This is a happy and humorous story that will put a smile on your face. Only a Duke Would Dare Victor Nathaniel Horatio, the Duke of Sutcliffe has come home after an extended absence to find a bride by his birthday (a stipulation in his father’s will). He also to hopes to find something that will help him understand his father’s suicide. Theadosia Brentwood is the local vicar’s daughter. Victor and Thea are childhood friends. When they are reunited, they get to know each other again and begin to fall in love. However, there are some rather serious obstacles in their way. Now what happens? This is a delightful story with likeable characters and an interesting storyline. There are a few twists and turns, and a very creative comeuppance for the villain. A December With a Duke Everleigh Chatterton is a widow who was abused by her later husband and his son. With very few exceptions she is afraid of men and has vowed never to marry again. Griffin, Duke of Sheffield, is an adventurer who wants a mama for his adopted daughter. When they meet at the holiday house party of the Duke and Duchess of Sutcliffe, there is a strong attraction. Is it possible that this gentle, understanding man and a sweet Christmas angel named Sarah will bring her the hope and love she needs so very much? A heartwarming story and loveable characters (most of them) make this a winner. I enjoyed all three, but A December With a Duke was my favorite. It went immediately to my re-read stack.

If you have not read the Seductive Scoundrels series by Collette Cameron, here your chance to read books 1-3. A wonderful collection that will make you smile and swoon over the hero and only make you want to read more by this author!! A Diamond for a Duke - This was a fairytale with all the magic woven throughout the pages. Complete with the mistreated younger daughter, Miss Jemma Dament and her Prince Charming, Jules, the Duke of Dandridge. The story contains some enchanted dialogue that will make you smile as the reader but make you sad at the plight Jemma has endured all her life. Jules has stepped back into society only for the sake of his godmother, Viscountess Theo Lockhart's birthday. Theo is Jenna's aunt and Jemma attends only to help her mother and older sister of the need anything, their virtual slave. When Jules runs across Jemma who he has not seen in a few years, the magic begins. Miss Cameron is an excellent story teller and always brings her characters to life. This tale will not disappoint you but make you want more!! Only a Duke Would Dare - Colchester Essex England 1809 Only a Duke would Dare what? Oh many things I can say after reading this delightful story. Victor, Duke of Sutcliffe and Theodosia, daughter of the local Vicar, had know each other as children before he left three years earlier after his father's suicide. He returns unexpectedly and she finds him in a most unusual place. She'd always had a tendre' for him and seeing him again, she only felt more. Victor was truly mesmerized at the beauty she had become and could only steal a kiss from her which was amazing for both of them! But in the background, Victor had a responsibility due to his father's will to marry before he was 26 (only weeks away) or he would lose his property to a cousin! He would not allow that because his mother would be displaced and he would not allow that to happen. But something is going on with the vicar when he announces Thea is to marry another and Victor declares that will never happen. Collette Cameron is the consummate story teller that always pulls me into the tale with her wonderful characters and dialogue. I always know there will be a new word or phrase I have not heard before, or a charming animal that melts the heart. I will leave you to find it yourself, but prepare to be surprised with the twist and turns that end in a heart smiling ending. A December with a Duke - If you love romantic regency stories, there is none better than Collette Cameron to satisfy you with every word she writes in this wonderful novella. A delightful heartwarming romance that bring two people together, during a month long house party to celebrate the holidays. Everleigh, the heroine (don't you just love that name?) was a widow who had sworn off marrying again due to the terrible treatment from her deceased husband and his son. Having endured and lost so much, she had sworn off men and had no plans to remarry. On the other hand, Griffin, the Duke of Sheffield wanted to marry to have a mother for his adopted daughter. As he meets the beautiful widow there is a strong attraction and he woos her to try to change her mind on marrying again. I truly adored these two characters and his daughter Sarah just melted my heart. The magic of the season prevails in this heartwarming story of love found when least expected. I read this each as a standalone book but together they are even more amazing!!

A Diamond for a Duke Wow, I loved this story. I haven’t laughed that hard in quite sometimes. Cameron is an extremely talented writer mixing wit and wisdom. I can’t wait to read more of her books. Only A Duke Would Dare I loved this story. Theadosia Brentwood is a vicar’s daughter and she has a secret. She has been secretly in love with Victor Nathaniel Horatio, the Duke of Sutcliffe for many years. But why would a Duke ever want a lowly vicar’s daughter? When Theadosia’s family is threatened only the Duke can save them. Only A Duke Would Dare is a wonderful story of love and forgiveness. It is a very quick read and perfect for an afternoon on the couch. A December With a Duke This book has one of my favorite nemesis in it. Caroline Chatterton is one of those characters that you just love to hate. “She lifted a sherry glass to her rouged, smirking lips as she stepped from the shadows where spiders and centipedes and other unpleasant creepy crawlies were wont to loiter.” It is a lovely romance about a woman who has suffered the loss of child. Everleigh is working through deep grief and Cameron gives a spot on account of that journey. Very good book.
