On a visit to London on behalf of his father, Titus meets the woman who will change the course of his future. Katiana de Edington is that woman.

Miss Tabitha Chesworth is walking down the aisle for the third time, but never as the bride. Frustrated with being passed over, there's nothing that a well-born lady can do about it.

Richard St Maur, sixteenth in his line, has sworn an oath never to marry.

The Honorable Caroline Storme has been furious with life since she was twelve. Sent to an asylum due to a suspected mental deficiency, she has finally returned to London, not with vengeance in mind, but freedom.

A classic tale from the Master of Weird Fiction, H.P. Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu" chronicles the journey of Francis Wayland Thurston as he examines the notes of his dead uncle and learns of a strange and mysterious cult that worships an ancient monster - Cthulhu - a terrifying human/octopus/dragon hybrid that lives in the hidden city of R'lyeh.

Lady Charlotte St Maur is a spinster. Invited to dances as a chaperone rather than a dance partner, it's all she can do to keep back tears as match after match is made - with her help. But a lady over thirty, no matter the title, doesn't find true love. William Lennox, Duke of Mercia, never expected to come to fame and fortune, and never thought anything could be more tiring than soldiering - except the marriage market. He needs to make a good match, but no matter how many young chits he's introduced to, it's always the chaperone who catches his eye.

Lady Honora Lennox hasn't gone by that name in three years - not since she was abducted and forced to work in a brothel. She's but nineteen and has given up on the world offering her anything of kindness. Until he walks through her door. Josiah Stanhope, Earl of Chester, is exhausted with politics and games, deceit and lies - it's time for simplicity, and there's nothing simpler than the clear cut exchange of coin for pleasure. And yet there's something different about this girl.
