A Clash of Hearts - Lucienne was positively outraged. The terrible collision with Lord Perry Wittenden's carriage had all but destroyed her own. But when the infuriatingly good-humored gent published a scandalous account of the accident in the local paper - in which Lucy was identified as a "shrew" - well, that was beyond bearing! Indeed, Lucy's every encounter with the man bred chaos, turmoil, disaster... And yet, Lord Perry was thoroughly enjoying himself. Lucy was the most temperamental, spoiled, and unreasonable young lady he had ever met. But her fiery spirit and captivating beauty drew him deeper into a raging battle of wits - and love was the grandest prize of all.

From the back cover: In her brother's breeches Miss Audacia Aderly was far too improper for words... and for her own good! Hadn't she already been mistaken for a boy by none other than Lord Greydon, the dashing Roland himself? It was high time for Audacia to be packed off to London to stay with her godmother and learn the ways of the _ton_. The thought of Audacia learning to become a lady was enough to bring Roland along for a laugh. But all too soon the delicious minx was abuzz with beaux... and up to her pretty neck in scandal. Was it too late to be a proper London lady and capture the one she loved?

Charlotte, who had never felt the peace of being cared for and protected, began to treasure the gift of Max's presence.

BEAUTY HAS A PRICE...
Kerry McGrath had only begun to work in the county prosecutor's office at the time of the infamous "Sweetheart Murder Case"--the bizarre slaying years ago of strikingly beautiful Suzanne Reardon. Now, ten years later, Kerry has gained a reputation as a smart and relentless prosecutor--so much so that her name has been given to the governor as a candidate for a new judgeship--and her new life and career are in full swing.
But Kerry's plans are turned upside down when her daughter Robin is injured in a car accident, requiring treatment from a well-known plastic surgeon. It is in his office that Kerry first encounters a beautiful face she remembers from her past but can't quite place--until she realizes that this angelic face is a troubling link to the "Sweetheart" case. When she starts asking questions, she soon discovers that everyone involved wants the case to remain closed...and will stop at nothing to keep it that way.
A terrifying look into a mind obsessed with beauty, LET ME CALL YOU SWEETHEART is America's Queen of Suspense at the very top of her form.

Darcy is a welcome suprise. Her characters are well-drawn, her plots hang together handsomely and her dialogue is sparkling. It is a great shame that it is so difficult to find her work, other than in o.p. searches.
