The handsome and mysterious Hal Lyndon is employed by Mr. Darcy to design new cottages for his estate workers. Rosie helps to reunite him with a beautiful Cornishwoman employed as a governess in a house close to Pemberley. When the earl puts in an unexpected appearance in Derbyshire, Hal offers to repay Rosie by posing as her paramour. But the earl now has someone else in mind for Rosie…a man who will go to any lengths to take possession of her dowry.

Rosie has fallen in love with Hal, but he is committed to his mysterious Cornishwoman.

Who is she, what is she to Hal, and will Rosie achieve her heart’s desire…

Susie Darcy’s Tenacious Nature

The unexpected appearance in Derbyshire of James Tyrell, son of the famous artist, causes quite a stir when it transpires that someone is hiding out locally and forging his father’s work.

Susie Darcy is intrigued by James, a useful distraction from her growing interest in Tobias Porter, their trainee steward at Pemberley and Wickham’s illegitimate son. As she and James follow leads, it becomes increasingly apparent that Tobias must be involved in the forger’s business. Could he still be bent upon avenging a father he never knew?

Susie is torn between her impossible feelings for Tobias and her equally strong attraction towards James. Determined to prove her own worth, she becomes increasingly reckless in her efforts to uncover the forger’s identity and restore the elder Mr Tyrell’s reputation.

Which of her handsome admirers will rescue her from a life-threatening situation, and is there any possibility of their overcoming the obstacles that prevent them from having a future together…
