Good luck!
The quiet life of Frances, Lady Rathmere, is disrupted forever the day Jack, 4th Marquess of Streatham, arrives from London and almost rides her down. At the same time a stranger arrives in the locality, makes a play for her young cousin and scandalous letters accusing Frances of an illicit liaison appear in the national press. Is Jack their author? Frances is convinced he is, and has no idea the trouble those letters are going to bring in their wake.
How liberating for a young woman to become a widow in the
Regency era – no more need to marry, a certain financial independence and still
welcome in Society. That is unless you have the sort of fortune that would make
you a target for a despicable forced and violent marriage…
The Gybford Affair has a number of storylines, but the
situation of a young widow is at its core. I thoroughly enjoyed this fast paced
and exciting historical romance. There
was a good balance of drama and everyday life to give a real flavour of the
period. There are plenty of characters to add moments of humour and see variety
of opinions on issues of the day.
Although I felt quite confident who the main romance would
be between, there is great tension as to ‘how’ these two will ever get
together, and in an unusual twist marriage in itself is not the end or even the
start of their story. I felt a great sense of transformation, especially of the
male lead, during the book, there is a darkness that slowly lifts and it’s a
very positive and happy tale despite moments of great sadness and grief. It was
interesting to see the different ways the difficult topic of maternal care were
discussed and experienced. It is still fascinating to me how the situation of
women has changed over time, and I’m always intrigued to read about women in
history and the lives they led. Although this story is focused on the wealthy
in Society, their money does not prevent great some of the toughest of life’s
hurdles and these are dealt with sensitively.
Of course there is a rogue who brings deceit, fear and drama
to the story, and he has been created with care and subtlety. His character
creates some of the more tense situations in the book and you can’t always be
sure how they will end. I enjoyed the changes in pace and tension as the
different threads of the story weaved together.
This book would suit those who enjoy historical romance,
it’s a great romp and would be fun to read while travelling as it’s very engaging.
About the Author: I’m an ex-academic library manager who lives in the Tyne valley, north east England, with my husband and 6 year-old Dalmatian. I came to writing late, and stay fit (sort of) roaming about Northumberland with my dog. It is a wonderful county for history lovers (and dog walkers!). Everyone knows about the Roman Wall, Vindolanda and all their wonderful Roman finds, but it is equally amazing for castles, bastles, fortified farms and the occasional peel tower. I’ve walked and ridden over a good deal of it. The wall is barely five miles away from my home and we have met people of all nationalities walking there. I take lots of pics when I’m out and pop them on my blog. When I write I’m not out to enlighten, but to entertain and I think I’m always going to have a happy ending. I may have a few tragedies and deaths along the way, but the ending will always be upbeat.
I don’t play music as I never notice when it stops, so I can’t be listening, can I?

ReplyDelete“I invested with a Crypto broker without proper research to know what I was hoarding my hard-earned money into, only to find out it was a hoax and sham. I invested over $180,000 USD estimated to be 6.3 BTC. I was unable to make any withdrawals out of my initial deposits let alone the gains he claimed I have earned even after meeting the bogus fees and charges he is always requesting. Fortunately, I got to know about Perfect Hackers's Bitcoin recovery programmers through research and positive reviews on Google. After a couple of hours consulting with them, all my funds were recovered including my profits. I can’t thank these guys enough for making me not another prey to these scammers. Thank you Perfect Hackers. Consult them via: morriswhite789@cyberservices.com

CRYPTO SCAM TRACKER-BITCOIN RECOVERY EXPERT HIRE TECHNOCRATE RECOVERY
ReplyDeleteI am writing to share my positive experience with TECHNOCRATE RECOVERY, who played a crucial role in assisting me after a distressing ordeal with an investment service. Initially, I had engaged with a company called (autotrading . com) lured by their promise of a 90-day return on investment (ROI). Unfortunately, what was marketed as a short-term, straightforward investment soon devolved into a four-month nightmare of delays and frustration. Despite my expectation of a 90-day period, my access to funds was indefinitely restricted, and my repeated attempts to withdraw earnings were met with continued obfuscation and excuses. When I sought a refund under the company's money-back guarantee, I was shocked to learn that I was disqualified because my request was made after the initial 90-day window, a condition that seemed to contradict the company's own terms. Feeling misled and frustrated, I decided to escalate the issue through consumer protection agencies and explore legal avenues. It was through this process that I came across (WW W.TECHNOCRATERECOVERY. SITE) Their team demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. They thoroughly investigated the fraudulent practices of the company and worked diligently to secure the return of my funds. TECHNOCRATE RECOVERY’s intervention was both timely and effective. They provided clear guidance and took actionable steps to recover my investment, which amounted to nearly $480,000. Their commitment to transparency and integrity was evident throughout the process, and they kept me informed every step of the way. Thanks to their efforts, I was able to recover my funds and gain closure on what had been a deeply troubling experience. I highly recommend TECHNOCRATE RECOVERY to anyone who has found themselves in a similar situation with fraudulent investment schemes or other financial disputes. Their expertise and dedication were instrumental in resolving my issue, and their services proved invaluable. They are a reliable ally for those seeking to recover lost funds and navigate complex financial disputes.

Never saw anything suspiciousup until my money on this site started showing bigger fluctuations than washappening in the overall market. I had to think quick as something wasevidently very wrong.

I recently had a troubling experience with an online broker that involved both financial loss and frustration. Initially, I invested $10,850 into my trading account, and over time, my account balance grew to $37,961. At first, everything seemed legitimate, and I was excited about the returns I was generating. However, the situation quickly took a turn for the worse once I tried to withdraw my profits. After submitting a withdrawal request, I was shocked to discover that the broker had not only denied my request but had also withheld the entire amount of my profit from my account. My initial response was to reach out to the broker’s support team for clarification. I sent multiple emails and tried to contact them via their official Telegram channel. Despite my repeated attempts, I received no response. My messages went unanswered, and I was left with no explanation or resolution. Frustrated and feeling powerless, I realized that I had to take more drastic measures. After some research, I found a company named Rapid Digital Recovery, which specializes in assisting victims of online fraud and helping individuals recover their funds from dishonest brokers. They offered me a chance to retrieve my money, and I decided to move forward with their services. Rapid Digital Recovery immediately started working on my case. They quickly identified the broker’s fraudulent practices and began communicating with them on my behalf. Within a short period, I received the full amount of my profits back into my account. This experience was a reminder of the importance of vigilance when dealing with online brokers, especially when they seem to be operating outside the bounds of fair practice. I wanted to share my story to help others avoid falling into similar traps. Online trading can be a rewarding venture, but it’s essential to choose a reputable and trustworthy broker. In cases where things go wrong, don’t hesitate to seek professional help. Rapid Digital Recovery was crucial in getting my money back, and I recommend reaching out to them if you ever find yourself in a similar situation. I also hope that those who support fraudulent brokers take responsibility for their actions, and that regulators and authorities take stronger steps to protect consumers from such dishonest practices. If you find yourself facing a similar situation, don’t hesitate to contact Rapid Digital Recovery. They are a reliable resource for anyone looking to reclaim their funds and hold rogue brokers accountable.
