Pressured into an unwanted marriage, Dorothea Manton is hiding from her abusive family in Lady Lucy's cottage. But trouble still finds her in the form of a handsome stranger collapsed in the lane. Injured, with little money and no place to live, Major Henry Felton would most likely be dead had this angelic young woman not rescued him. Attraction and desire blossoms as Thea nurses him to health, but before these newfound feelings can be explored, Lucy's brother intervenes and declares himself Thea's protector. When Thea's family are close to finding her, Thea is forced to choose between the security of a wealthy husband and the wounded soldier who stole her heart. If you like Steamy Regency Romance, rogues, strong heroines, and scintillating love scenes, then you'll love Dayna Quince's Historical Romance novels.
