You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!
This HaBO is from Tanvee, and this is part one of her two-book HaBO request:
The first one I’m looking for is a historical romance that I read a few years ago – it’s part of a series of books about a group of widows, who make a pact to have sex with someone in a specified period of time.
The widow in question in this book lives next door to her deceased husband’s best friend (his name could be Adam?). She goes to a house party and gives signals to some other man to sleep with her, but Adam (who is helping her with a list of potential lovers) goes into her room instead and they have sex but she still thinks it’s that other guy. Long story short, they both love each other and end up together at the end.
Tell me more about these widows!

Sounds like Candice Hern’s Merry Widows series! Adam is the hero of the first book, In the Thrill of the Night.
All three Merry Widows ebooks also come in a boxed set that is priced at the cost of two books (at least for the Nook).
My first thought was also Candice Hern!
I loved this series; I think Hern really topped her previous books with these three.
1) In the Thrill of the Night
2) Just One of Those Flings (my favorite: younger man/older woman)
3) Lady Be Bad
BN.com has “The Merry Widows” box set for $9.99 right now ($5 less than all three seperately).
I thought it was a Theresa Romain story but I see she has commented and seems to know she didn’t write it.
@TheresaRomain – Ms. Romain, thank you! That is in fact the book! I can’t believe I couldn’t remember it – I had enjoyed it a lot!
Thank you everyone, SBTB community strikes again!
