Freedom. That’s all Lady Honor Baxendale wants—for her sisters and for herself. Honor has a bold plan to become financially independent, using a skill she learned at her father’s knee. She seeks the help of a solicitor and is pleased with her choice…as long as she can resist the solicitor himself.
Lord Edward Winborne has been happy to come to the aid of his four sisters in the past. But when a neighbor’s daughter, Lady Honor Baxendale, requests his help for a dangerous scheme she has in mind, he feels it his duty to dissuade her. When that fails, he wants to protect her, and then somehow finds he wants to do more. Much more.
Released April!
THE SEDUCTION OF LADY CHARITY - The Baxendale Sisters Book #4
Lady
Charity Baxendale has long dreamed of becoming a renowned portrait painter.
After she’s received two significant commissions from esteemed family members,
a rakish Scottish baron commissions her to do his portrait, and she feels she
is one step closer.
When
Robin, Lord Stanberry, with whom Charity has had a long friendship, asks her to
marry him, she must choose between marriage and her career. She refuses him,
for he is heir to a dukedom, and Charity fears that not only would she be
unsuited to life as a duchess but also that her burgeoning career might end
before it begins. And besides, Robin has made no mention of love.
Due
to tragic unforeseen circumstances, Robin is now the Duke of Harwood. Robin
feels himself unfitted for such a position. He was perfectly content living as
a Viscount in Tunbridge Wells, writing a manuscript on ornithology. He’d hoped
to have Charity at his side by the time he took his place at Harwood Castle,
for her pragmatic nature and strength of character would be of enormous help to
him. Should he have thrown himself at her feet and declared an undying love?
Charity would have seen through it, for that was not the sort of friendship
they enjoyed. But her refusal has brought him lower than he’d thought possible.
Can he change her mind, despite the distance that now lay between them?
