Romance Historical

England, 1805 Lady Wilhelmina Stanhope is ruined and everyone knows it. Back in Town for the first season since her downfall, Willa plans to remain firmly on the shelf, assuming only fortune hunters will want her now. Instead she focuses on her unique tea blends, secretly supporting a coffee house which employs poor women and children. If her clandestine involvement in trade is discovered, she'll be ruined. Again. No one is more shocked by Willa's lack of quality suitors than the newly minted Duke of Hartwell. Having just returned from India, the dark duke is instantly attracted to the mysterious wallflower. His pursuit is hampered by the ruthless Earl of Bellingham, who once jilted Willa and is now determined to reclaim her. Caught between the clash of two powerful men, a furious Willa refuses to concede her independence to save her reputation. But will she compromise her heart?

I'm dying to read this book. My heart sped up when reading the
story of your family friend- the romantic in me was hoping to
hear that true love prevailed in the end. Your twist on that
story seems very interesting. :)

Hi Sandy - Thank you! I'd love to hear what you think of Willa's story.

I'm really looking forward to reading this book, because it mirrors someone in my own family that did the same thing. They dated for years, until his Mother passed away, then they got married. The thing is, when I saw them, they didn't seem deliriously happy, and were too old by then to have children, so they adopted a child. When the child was in their teens, I believe, he passed away, leaving her all alone to raise the child. There's much more to the story, but I don't think it was a very happy story in itself. They should have married when they were young, and the Mother was still living, in my opinion. I think they dated for over 20 years, which was a shame, and wasted the best years of their lives. Reading your book will probably have a lot of parallels to this person. I'll have to read the others as well, since they sound equally as good!! Congratulations on your book!!

Peggy Roberson 9:56am January 9, 2014)

Looking forward to reading this book. Loved the excerpts. My favorite author is Julie Garwood's historical books.
(
Carol Woodruff 11:10am January 9, 2014)

get back at that nasty Earl! I love a strong cup of coffee
with a shot of French Vanilla creamer.
