REGENCY LONDON'S MOST ROMANTIC ADDRESS

Moonlight Square

Welcome to Moonlight Square

MOONLIGHT SQUARE is a community-based Regency Historical romance series that centers around a fabulously elegant London garden square (like Berkeley Square, Grosvenor Square, Hanover Square, etc.) and the wealthy aristocrats who live there ~ including a higher-than-average population of bachelor dukes! *grin* 

Built by Beau Nash with magnificent terraces, elegant Town houses, and big corner mansions (where the dukes live, of course) Moonlight Square is rumored to be Regency London's most romantic address. Certainly, it's one of its most scandalous! (Scroll down for details on each book in the series.)


A Brief Walking Tour

CLICK THE MAP TO ENLARGE
On your left stands the Grand Albion, an opulent hotel based on the Pulteney Hotel of Regency times, mashed-up with Almack's on King Street, for, you see, the Grand Albion boasts a fine ballroom on the first floor, with a weekly subscription ball throughout the Season. On the ground floor, in the back, you will find the local gentlemen's club. Just hope that your name does not end up in the wager book.

Shall we take a stroll along the graveled walks? The flowers and plane trees are so pleasant in Spring. But don't be surprised if we find some couple madly in love stealing a moment alone in the garden folly...more fodder for tea-time with the ladies!


Coming out of the park, we now stand in the shadow of St. Andrew's Church with its picturesque steeple. Much like St. George's in Hanover Square, it's one of the most fashionable spots to get married in London, as our local bachelors seem to be learning. Try as they might to avoid it, they do have a way of ending up there at the altar, saying "I do."

I hope you've enjoyed our brief promenade. Scroll down to meet the denizens of this aristocratic enclave, from wall-flowers to scandalous beauties, from rakehells to mysterious loners, and much more to come, only one question remains...

Prequel Novella:
​One Moonlit Night

Presenting the wildly romantic new Regency series from New York Times bestselling author, Gaelen Foley… Welcome to Moonlight Square ~ Regency London’s Most Exclusive Address!

At the ripe old age of two-and-twenty, Lady Katrina Glendon just can’t seem to snare a husband. Whether her frank tongue or slightly eccentric ways bear the blame, she faces a houseful of younger sisters clamoring for her, the eldest, to marry and move aside before they all end up as spinsters. When her latest suitor defects and proposes to another girl, Trinny throws up her hands in despair of ever finding a fiancé. But sometimes destiny waits just around the corner…and love lives right across the square!

Gable Winston-McCray, the charming, understated Viscount Roland saunters through life as a wealthy, sophisticated rakehell and man-about-town. Heir to an earldom, the handsome hedonist would rather dally with bored Society wives than acquire a bride of his own, much to his father’s dismay. Until, one moonlit night, fate strikes! Unsuspecting neighbors meet and become flirtatious allies. When Gable receives his father’s ultimatum to wed or go penniless, he offers Trinny a marriage of convenience. Alas, the pretty redhead cannot possibly accept such an unfeeling proposal—even if her dear “Lord Sweet Cheeks” might be the man of her dreams…

Book 3: Duke of Storm

He’s the Duke no one expected. She’s the Lady he’s been looking for. Can their love overcome the dark storm gathering over the House of Amberley?

London, 1817. Rugged, roguish Major Connor Forbes has just received the surprise of a lifetime. After returning from the front lines of the Napoleonic Wars, the Irish-born warrior has just learned he’s the heir to an English dukedom. The only problem? The last three Dukes of Amberley all died under very mysterious circumstances, and before long, Connor is convinced that someone is trying to kill him. As he attempts to survive his new title and navigate life in the London aristocracy, he knows he needs the guidance of a high-society insider…but whom could he possibly trust?

Innocent, mild-mannered Lady Margaret Winthrop is desperate to escape her cruel sister’s household, even if it means marrying her only suitor—an arrogant boor. When the hothead challenges the new Duke of Amberley to a duel, she has no choice but to throw herself on the war-hero’s mercy to spare him. But Maggie never expected she’d have to make a scandalous pact with the dangerous outsider to keep her beau alive…

As Connor and Maggie search for clues together in the London ton, they can’t help but grow closer. To him, she embodies a battle-hardened soldier’s dream of peacetime. To her, he calls forth the adventurous streak she didn’t know she possessed. But can their fragile bond survive Connor’s cursed inheritance, or will a vengeful assassin and family secrets buried deep within the House of Amberley destroy their chance at happiness?

Book 4: Duke of Shadows

A heartbroken belle. A missing suitor. A heroic duke in disguise. Unmask Duke of Shadows and let the highwayman-duke steal your heart!

England, 1817. Lady Portia Tennesley has always dreamed of marrying for love. When the suitor who seemed her perfect match disappears at the height of the Season, she’s heartbroken. Eventually she consents to an arranged marriage with an eccentric duke she barely knows, a wealthy recluse who seems more interested in science than spending time with his new fiancée. But before Portia walks down the aisle to her grand, loveless match, she turns to the only man who can uncover her former beau’s fate—the mysterious outlaw known as Silversmoke.
Lucas Wakeford, the Duke of Fountainhurst, leads a double life that leaves him little time for romance. After his parents died at the hands of brigands as a lad, he found his true passion in standing up for the powerless as his masked alter ego, the heroic highwayman, Silversmoke. As the duke, however—his charade as a scholarly quiz aside—Luke knows he must eventually marry. Besides, having a wife around could help him blend in with his fellow noblemen. Elegant and highborn Lady Portia Tennesley seems perfect for the sort of duchess Luke needs. A fashionable belle preoccupied with high society, she’s sure to keep her nose out of his secret life fighting crime in London’s underworld.

But when the lady herself ventures into Silversmoke’s lair, begging for the famed highwayman’s help, Luke is astonished—and realizes he has seriously underestimated his future bride. Yet as Silversmoke, he can’t deny a damsel in distress, so he agrees to find her missing suitor. Tangled in a web of secrets and hidden identities, will Luke and Portia’s growing attraction be strong enough to survive the truth, or will their love steal away into the night?

Duke of Shadows is the fourth standalone novel in the Moonlight Square regency historical romance series. If you like alpha males in disguise, scintillating chemistry, and a double dose of mystery, you’ll love New York Times bestselling author Gaelen Foley’s tale of undercover romance.
