An embittered noble bent on revenge.
Richard,
Marquess of Heatherbroke, has been thrown out of his Oxford Set for one
mistaken night. He is a broken and bitter man, who only cares for one
thing: finding and protecting his illegitimate child.
A vicar's daughter with a heart of gold.
Prudence
Pendleton leads a sedate country life as the daughter of a vicar.
Although she longs for adventure, the only hint of mystery in her life
is Harriet, the little girl who was left on their doorstep in the middle
of the night years ago.
A romance neither expected but cannot resist.
When
Richard kidnaps the pair of them, Prudence knows what she must do. She
must protect Harriet even though it means leaving behind everything she
has ever known. Prudence and Richard are united by their love for the
child and a growing attraction for each other, but will Richard’s
infamous past, and a host of other obstacles keep them apart?
3.5 STARS
This story had had it's moments with good main characters. Unfortunately, it also had a 3 year old girl who was inconsistent in her ability to talk. She went from just saying a few childlike words to speaking many long sentences, for most of the story. That part just felt off.
The rest of the story was pretty good though so I only knocked part of the rating down a half point.
