Publisher's Summary

Orphaned at a young age, Eleanor wants nothing more than to settle in a home of her own. Stratford, having met once with betrayal, desires a woman who will be true. When a complicated inheritance forces them together, they little expect this to be the answer to their innermost desires.

Eleanor Daventry has come into money, but she cannot access her inheritance without a husband. Steadfast and independent, she would rather become a schoolmistress than take a husband she does not love.

Stratford Tunstall has just discovered his predecessor willed the estate’s unentailed land to Miss Daventry. Although cynical regarding love, the man recognizes a practical solution when he sees one. He and Miss Daventry must marry, and Stratford wastes no time in pressing his suit - with disastrous results.

In the face of such an insulting proposal, Eleanor flees to London where she lands unwittingly in the home of Stratford’s closest friends. Now thrown together constantly, Eleanor can't help admiring his masterful apologies, never mind how often he must deliver them. Stratford concedes that, against all his predictions, Eleanor has no shortage of determined suitors.

When combined forces threaten Eleanor’s reputation, Stratford realizes it's more than her land he cares about. Somehow, he'll have to convince Eleanor that his coming to her rescue is a deed inspired by love.

Enjoyable Clean Romance

Was looking for a “clean” regency romance to listen to with my elderly mother and this fit the criteria. It was engaging enough for us but not something I’d list as a must read/listen title. Having said that, I will be purchasing the next book in the series as there seems to be a limited availability of clean romances and this was definitely enjoyable enough.

Narrator poor

Quite pleasant story but the narration was woeful. Appalling mispronunciations throughout. Surely it is possible to have an English speaking narrator and not an American “putting on” and English accent very badly. Please try harder.
