The Laws of Attraction series is Laura Trentham’s most recent historical romance project, with four books published across 2023 and 2024. The series is set during the Regency period and features romances built around intellectual sparring and social maneuvering. The Courtship Calculation and The Marriage Experiment launched the series in 2023, followed by The Passion Project and The Theory of Dukes in 2024.
Trentham brings the same attention to character dynamics that marks her contemporary work, but the historical setting lets her play with the formal constraints of Regency courtship. The titles hint at the series’ interest in pairing logic with passion, and the heroines are women who think as sharply as they feel. Fans of Julia Quinn or Tessa Dare will find familiar territory here, filtered through Trentham’s own voice.
