Troy Beaumont, only son to the Earl of Whickerton, risked his heart once... and came to regret it. When the beautiful recently widowed Lady Leonora - or Nora - comes back into his life, he is torn between duty and desire.. England 1803: TROY BEAUMONT, only son to the EARL OF WHICKERTON, risked his heart once...and came to regret it. Now, he knows only duty, forsaking his family's tradition to marry for love and love alone. Truth be told, he would rather not marry at all; however, as his father's only heir, Troy knows he cannot be selfish. He must marry. But who? LADY LEONORA-or NORA-lost her heart once, mere days before her marriage to another man. Ever since, she has been living a life of regret...until-most unexpectedly-her husband succumbs to his scandalous exploits and she returns to her old home a young widow. Loath of her year of mourning, Nora rides out one day, only to have her path cross... ...his. After avoiding Nora's presence these past few years, Troy is shocked to find himself face to face with the girl who once stole his heart. He knows he should turn around and leave. Yet his feet refuse to comply, holding him in place as old feelings reawaken, for her teasing smile and compassionate eyes spark an old familiarity. Once, they were friends. Once, they knew each other. Once, there was love between them. Could there be again? Nora is overcome by the way her heart trips and stumbles the moment her eyes fall on Troy. For years, the dreaded thing felt almost dormant, making her wonder if it ever truly functioned in the first place. But why now? Now, that she knows there can be no future for them? After all, Troy needs an heir, and she...cannot provide one.

Autorenporträt
USA Today bestselling author Bree Wolf has always been a language enthusiast (though not a grammarian!) and is rarely found without a book in her hand or her fingers glued to a keyboard. Trying to find her way, she has taught English as a second language, traveled abroad and worked at a translation agency as well as a law firm in Ireland. She also spent loooong years obtaining a BA in English and Education and a MA in Specialized Translation while wishing she could simply be a writer. Although there is nothing simple about being a writer, her dreams have finally come true. "A big thanks to my fairy godmother!" Currently, Bree has found her new home in the historical romance genre, writing Regency novels and novellas. Enjoying the mix of fact and fiction, she occasionally feels like a puppet master (or mistress? Although that sounds weird!), forcing her characters into ever-new situations that will put their strength, their beliefs, their love to the test, hoping that in the end they will triumph and get the happily-ever-after we are all looking for.
