BEAUTY AND THE BANKER
She’s not too much for the man who finally realizes he’s always wanted more.
Her whole life, she’s been told she’s too big, too intense, too full of fire. But she’s done shrinking to fit into someone else’s picture-perfect — and pretend — idea of a woman.
In the Beauty & the Banker series, Leigh Edgewood writes heroines who are outrageously clever, often curvy, and delightfully complex. And when they cross paths with elite, emotionally walled-off men trained to want perfection over passion?
Something breaks open.
What happens when power is undone by softness? Only the most dangerous thing a formidable man can do: fall for the woman who makes him feel everything.
PROFESSOR’S PRETTY PET
She’s always been in control — but what would it feel like to hand it over?
She’s the overachiever. The ace grad student who’s two steps ahead but still worries she’s falling behind. Think “first daughter” energy with perfect posture and exhaustion in her bones. Everyone leans on her, but no one sees how close she is to collapse.
In the Professor’s Pretty Pet series, Leigh Edgewood writes brilliant, burdened women and the tender, dominant men who offer them exactly what they need: permission to let go. These academics may be soft-spoken on campus, but behind closed doors they lead with clarity, care, and control that feels like safety.
Get ready for boundaries offered like devotion, praise that releases, and the breathtaking relief of finally being held.
THE AFTERGLOW
She built a whole life for everyone else — now she wants one for herself.
She’s not looking to start over. She’s looking to start true. After years of showing up for family, careers, and community, she journeys alone. Abroad, among strangers and sunsets, she remembers what it feels like to want something just for herself.
In the Afterglow series, Leigh Edgewood writes midlife heroines rediscovering their desire, beauty, and boldness—and meeting men who don’t fear their depth, but worship it. These stories aren’t about erasing the past. They’re about honoring every version of herself that led her to this moment.
Everything she’s survived has shaped her into the woman he’s been waiting to worship.
