He won't see another pound from his parents, however, until he's engaged to Lavinia. Owen has spent most of his bachelor years drinking, gambling, and skirt-chasing. But the duke has already chosen Alex's infamously spoiled elder sister, Lavinia, for Owen. AN INDECENT PROPOSAL Lady Alexandra Hobbs, the daughter of the Duke of Huntley, has intended to marry Lord Owen Monroe since she first glimpsed him from the window of her bedchamber, back when she was just a girl. The fifth volume, The Untamed Earl, is inspired by William Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew. Bestselling author Valerie Bowman sets the stage in Regency England for her Playful Brides series, where couples' misadventures on the way to the altar are witty, romantic romps based on some of the world's most beloved plays.
