Historical romance
The Lily of Ludgate Hill
Book 3 of the Belles of London series
Lady Anne Deveril has spent years sharing her widowed mother's mourning and suppressing the life she once expected to build with Felix Hartford. Concern for a newly married friend sends Anne north with her mother, and practical necessity forces her to accept help from the roguish former fiancé she considers unreliable. Travel and renewed proximity expose the grief, family obligations, and mistaken judgments that ended their secret engagement. Slow-burning and emotionally restrained, this second-chance romance suits readers who enjoy devoted caretakers, road journeys, old misunderstandings, lively banter, and couples learning that duty need not require permanent self-denial.
