Lily
by Lauren Royal

Lily Ashcroft has never understood the need for her rather eccentric family's motto: "Question convention." In fact, even at the tender age of sixteen, Lily took one look at Lord Randal Nesbitt and wished for a most traditional institution—marriage. But, her older sister Rose has her sights set on the dashing scholar, and known for always doing the right thing, Lily puts her own longings aside to help Rose in her quest to land him.

What no one counts on are Rand's feelings. Though he hasn't seen Lily in four years, he's never forgotten her fresh and innocent beauty. Unused to falling victim to both desire and love, Rand never thought he'd marry. But, now he finds himself caught in the thorny position between two lovely sisters—the one he's expected to wed, and the one he truly wants...



Lauren Royal's Bio

Lauren Royal became interested in the Restoration period at the age of fourteen, when she sneaked a valuable first- edition copy of Forever Amber out of her great-uncle's library. She began amassing a collection of history books and taking copious notes with the intention of someday writing novels of her own. A fourteen-year career as the CEO of her own jewelry store chain delayed those dreams, but she never forgot them. Lauren lives in southern California with her family.
