Anarchy at Almacks: A Story of Love at First Sight
Book One of the Edanmore Chronicles
It’s love at first sight across Almack’s crowded ballroom in this sweetly erotic, Regency-era romance. There’s only one problem: dashing Admiralty spy Lord Maximillian Browning and breathtaking, red-haired Miss Rowan Higbee can’t seem to get introduced to one another! All their plans to meet keep going awry!
Rowan and Max’s love story plays out against the background of the 1804 London Season. Before they can find their happy ending, Rowan and Max will have to contend with a temperamental French modiste, a Venetian Breakfast gone wrong, Rowan’s horse-mad, hot-headed brother and a collection of unlikely villains. Max doesn’t know it, but Rowan’s past may actually present the biggest obstacle of all.

About Nola
Nola Saint James started reading romance novels to get a break from her “real life” job. She realized that an hour curled up in a comfy chair with a well-written book was the best stress reliever in the world. Especially if good vanquishes evil and the main characters always get their “happily ever after.”
Fashion with Nola
The fashions of the Regency Period are very distinctive and quite different from those of the mid-18th century. New manufacturing processes made clothing more affordable. Ease of movement, especially for women, informed some styles. Men eschewed colorful evening wear for severe, but elegant black and white ensembles.
