Four thousand two hundred and sixteen pounds, and eleven shillings. That is the price of Evelyn Hartwell's ruin - and the debt a stranger has just bought.
Cornwall, 1815. Her father has been dead three months, the county calls him a pirate, and Evelyn holds a bankrupt estate together by main force and a set of books she keeps herself. Then the Earl of Trevanion arrives at her door with no card, no apology, and an offer far too generous for the worthless strip of cliff he claims to want.
Evelyn knows a bargain with a hidden bottom when she sees one. What she doesn't know is that Nathaniel has come to prove her father a thief-and that the truth buried under her cliff will cost him the grievance he built his whole life on.
Neither of them counts on the mornings. On the digging, the quarrels, the coat given against the rain. On the discovery that the most dangerous thing on that cliff is not what her father hid, but what they are starting to feel. And when a smiling neighbour who has wanted the Hartwell land for twenty years decides Evelyn is worth more to him dead than wed, a marriage of convenience becomes the only shield either of them has-and the one thing Evelyn swore she'd never accept.
She's wanted for her estate, her competence, her silence. Just once, she means to be chosen for the plain reason-or not at all.
A slow-burn romance full of secrets, ledgers, and hard-won love, for readers who like their heroines sharp and their earls undone. Book Two of The Earls-a complete story that can be read alone.
