Produktbeschreibung
Justinian Longleigh, youngest son of the Duke and Duchess of Bellevue, has achieved his dream of becoming the youngest don at Oxford University. That the professors are not allowed to marry bothers him not at all. He desires to live the life of the mind, not of the flesh. However, when he rescues a young woman from a laboratory fire, he feels responsible for her life. Elizabeth Barton has been living disguised as a student at the all-male institution for years learning all manner of things, but none useful for a young woman. Having just blown up her second laboratory, the chancellor will no longer turn a blind eye and orders her to leave and never return. She has nowhere to go. Justin knows the exact person to help her, his mother, Lady Flora. As soon as they meet, Flora knows this is the woman for her son if only he will give up academia for wedded bliss. She will do all in her power to see them married.
Autorenporträt
Lynn Shurr grew up in Pennsylvania Dutch country, but left to wander the world shortly after getting a degree in English Literature. After living in several states and Europe, she picked up a degree in librarianship. Her first reference job brought her to the Cajun Country of Louisiana. Eventually, she became director of a library system. For her the old saying, "Once you've tasted bayou water, you will always remain here," came true. She raised three children near the banks of the Bayou Teche and lives there still with her astronomer husband, where she writes, paints, studies history, and roots for the LSU Tigers and the New Orleans Saints.
