After the tragic death of his wife, Jasper, the 8th Duke of
Bainbridge buried himself away in the dark cold walls of
his home, Castle Blackwood. When he’s coaxed out of his
self-imposed exile to attend the amusements of the Frost
Fair, his life is irrevocably changed by his fateful
meeting with Lady Katherine Adamson.
With her tight brown ringlets and silly white-ruffled
gowns, Lady Katherine Adamson has found her dance card
empty for two Seasons. After her father’s passing,
Katherine learned the unreliability of men, and is
determined to depend on no one, except herself. Until she
meets Jasper…
In a desperate bid to avoid a match arranged by her family,
Katherine makes the Duke of Bainbridge a shocking
proposition—one that he accepts.
Only, as Katherine begins to love Jasper, she finds the
arrangement agreed upon is not enough. And Jasper is left
to decide if protecting his heart is more important than
fighting for Katherine’s love.
Your excerpt was really engrossing, and I wish I had the book in front of me, to find out how the rest of the story unfolds!! Whomever did your cover, did a beautiful job, since I found it breathtaking!! The picture itself, as well as the colors are top-notch!! Congratulations on your book, and not only will this be on my TBR list, but I'm sure it's going to do very well!! You chose well with your profession, and I'm sure your Princesses-in-waiting will have a great teacher, as well as your future Prince!! (Peggy Roberson 10:57am October 16, 2014)
