Description
A sizzling historical romance perfect for all fans of Bridgerton and Jilly Cooper
Fortune favours the bold. But is Lady Anne daring enough to accept a favour from a wicked gentleman?
Lady Anne Deveril has voluntarily renounced any fanciful notions of love and marriage. And yet, fate now puts Anne back into the entirely too enticing path of Mr. Felix Hartford.
The youthful torch Hart once held for Anne has long since cooled. Or so he keeps telling himself. But now Anne needs a favour. Hart will play along with her little ruse - on the condition that Anne attends his grandfather's country estate.
Away from society, Anne makes the tantalising discovery that beneath the roguish exterior is a man with hidden depths, scorching passions - and a tender heart.
A fun, romantic slow-burn love story that you won't be able to put down, The Lily of Ludgate Hill is one of the Belles of London tales readers can't help falling in love with.
