A duel. An ultimatum. An arranged marriage.

England, 1777

Will, Viscount Wingrave, whiles away his time gambling and bedding married women, thwarted in his wish to serve his country by his controlling father.

News that his errant son has fought a duel with a jealous husband is the last straw for the Earl of Marstone. He decrees that Will must marry. The earl's eye lights upon Connie Charters, unpaid housekeeper and drudge for a poor but socially ambitious father who cares only for the advantage her marriage could bring him.

Will and Connie meet for the first time at the altar. But Connie wants a husband who will love and respect her, not a womanizer and a gambler.

Their new home, on the wild coast of Devonshire, conceals dangerous secrets that threaten them and the nation. Can Will and Connie overcome the forces against them and forge a happy life together?

A wholesome Romance

A great find, the end felt rushed as if the author ran out to time in an exam, so on the basis I felt cheated.

Superb storyline and the right amount of villains to accompany the twist. EV's voice still takes some getting used to.

Aptly named

There seems to be a lot of repeat themes in this genre, but this story brought something refreshing: it was interesting to hear the interaction between classes and their different vernaculars. Well performed, as far as my untrained ear for 19th century UK slang can tell.

Interesting dialogue between classes
