title: The Peppered Sweets Trilogy
author: Loren, Jae
description: Alice Marchant is completely content with her lack of marriage prospects. Or at least, that is what she thought, before she found Harry Karsten hiding behind the wall curtains during his mother's soiree. It will be challenge indeed to get this most reasonable botanist to embrace his hidden illogical nature. It's a good thing she is patient and has an endless supply of blackberry jam.
