Romance Historical
A debut novel of erotic intensity set in the Regency era.
In the Scottish countryside of Selkirk, Lady Isabella Stirling resides at Bowhill Park, serving penance for a sin that nearly ruined her family. For five years she has been condemned to a loveless marriage and confined to the estate where she does little more than tend her rose garden. With her husband absent for months at a time and few visitors, Bella lives a lonely existence, denying the passions that burn within her very soul.
Then her cousin comes for a visit and makes an outrageous suggestion: what Bella needs is a lover. A hired lover. Despite her need, Bella says no. But soon Mr. Gideon Rosedale arrivesโand he is at her service for two weeks. Indulging in what she intends to be a harmless flirtation, Bella is overcome by Gideonโs intoxicating presence. And when she at last permits him to satisfy her desires, she discovers sheโs done the unthinkableโsheโs fallen in love.
