Fall of the House of Ramesses, Book 1: Merenptah

"The Three Suicides": Back in London, Mycroft alarms Anna by becoming ever closer to Lady Emmeline. No longer speaking to Mycroft, Anna becomes interested in the suicide of an actress and decides to follow up the case with her maid, Marie. Mycroft joins in the case and discovers that a crooked lawyer has drugged a wealthy citizen, got him to change his will in favour of the gang, and has then arranged his "suicide". The lawyer, realising that Anna and Marie have tracked him down, has them seized and gives them a deadly dose of a hallucinogenic drug. Hardly surprisingly, the two women suffer dreadfully until Mycroft rescues them and the gangsters are arrested. But the life of Marie, Anna's maid, is in danger from the drug. As she is now Watson's fiancée, her predicament is doubly moving for Anna and Mycroft.

It's a long, and dangerous road from Louisiana to the L Bar Ranch on the Bosque River, Texas, but for Earl Lamar, recently discharged sergeant from the First Texas Confederate Cavalry, it's the only way home.
After surviving the war, Earl is shattered to learn his parents didn't, and now the responsibility of their ranch and their cowboys has fallen to him.

Earl decides to add two hundred head of cattle to Charles Goodnight's first drive to the Pecos River.

For the daughter of a gentleman during the English Regency, life can be a whirlwind of parties, balls and outings--all to catch a suitable husband.

Book 2: The Lazy Bachelor
Mr. Peregrine Tyndall has often been called the laziest man in London. Even still, stirred to the enormous task of matchmaking when a hunting accident suffered by his cousin makes him realize he stands in real danger of inheriting an earldom--with all its tedious responsibilities. In his opinion, the perfect girl to marry his cousin and give the earldom another heir than himself would be their childhood friend, Portia Freestone.
Mr. Tyndall doesn't know what formidable obstacles lay before him in this endeavour. However, when he joins a house party at the earl's country home with this match on his mind, everything seems to go wrong. In the first place, his normally obliging friend Portia has a secret. She has no wish to marry the earl--she likes him very well but the man she secretly wishes to marry is Mr. Tyndall himself. An even bigger problem is Miss Frances Armitage. She and her little sister Eleanor had been left in his guardianship, a duty he has benignly and completely neglected up to now. A furious Miss Armitage is about to descend on Lakeford Hall to demand that Mr. Tyndall take up his duties to her and her sister in a responsible manner--even if she has to force him to do it!

Not only is he a neighbor of Mr. Clarke's, but Cecilia's stepsister-to-be, Kitty, develops a tendre toward Mr. Guy Dorne, Ravenshill's best friend.
The Viscount Ravenshill is not the sort of man to regret his past, even when he finds himself unaccountably fascinated by the lovely Miss Rowland. He looks on his friend Guy's growing attachment to Kitty Clarke with amusement and resolutely ignores the promptings of his own traitoro
us heart. The grim past which made him a ruthless rake also makes him a completely unsuitable match for an innocent girl like Cecilia Rowland. Nevertheless, when Cecilia and Kitty go to London for the Season, the same Fate that threw Cecilia toward Ravenshill takes an unexpected twist that endangers the loves of both girls.
