From Julia Quinn, the New York Times bestselling author of steamy historical romances, comes the third seductive installment of the Smythe-Smith Quartet, The Sum of All Kisses. Sarah Pleinsworth can’t forgive Hugh Prentice for the duel he fought three years ago that nearly destroyed her family, sent her cousin fleeing, and left Hugh himself with a badly injured leg. That’s fine with Hugh, who can’t tolerate Sarah’s dramatic ways. But when the two are forced to spend a week together, they find that unexpected kisses, and mutual passion, may have the power to change both of their minds. Written with Julia Quinn’s trademark style, The Sum of All Kisses is a witty and lighthearted Regency romance.

Same author's banter-driven Regency with bickering pair stuck sharing an estate; lighter on angst, with a breeches-wearing heroine instead of an injured, guarded hero.
Because of Miss Bridgerton
Same author's banter-driven Regency with reluctant allies thrown together, though it's a lighter-heat Georgian romp with amnesia rather than a grudge-fueled slow burn.
