A Rogue's Promise (Second Sons #4)
Meredith Lamonica
But falling in love could take it all away.
Elizabeth Linfield is determined to keep her heart a safe distance from any gentleman who might threaten her independence. But that all changes when, three miles from home, her carriage breaks down in the middle of the road, and a handsome stranger offers his aid.
Help comes by way of the roguish Danial Hudson, who is overseeing his brother’s estate in the town of Langholm. One fixed axle later, a friendship kindles between them and soon blazes into something more.
Hudson, however, is not particularly keen on falling in love. As a child, he lost his mother during the birth of his little sister, and mere days later, his father took off with his lover, abandoning the family for good and causing Hudson to harden his heart to the world.
Now, Elizabeth has found a crack in his defenses and managed to break through. There’s only one problem—Elizabeth’s cowardly and shameless brother Rigby owes a debt to Lord Sudworth, whom he has promised Elizabeth’s hand in marriage as repayment.
But Elizabeth comes to realize she isn’t the only one harboring a dark secret, and her chance meeting with Danial Hudson may not have been as serendipitous as it first seemed…
You’re invited to the whimsical Regency-era English countryside in A ROGUE’S PROMISE, Meredith Lamonica’s steamy and scandalous follow-up to SECRETS OF A VISCOUNT!
“Concurrent to the events of SECRETS OF A VISCOUNT by Meredith Lamonica, A ROGUE’S PROMISE is a historical romance set in the Regency-era English countryside. Join a cast of charismatic characters who bally whip-smart, witty banter back and forth as they tackle love matches, dark secrets, murderous mysteries, and forbidden vices in the whimsical and scandalous town of Langholm, and the pastoral holiday retreat of Scotland’s Gretna Green. With deliciously steamy love scenes intertwined with farcical misunderstandings, A ROGUE’S PROMISE is the perfect marriage of Netflix’s ‘Bridgerton’ and Shakespeare’s comedies, with Meredith Lamonica’s signature cheeky prose and dramatic flair serving as the tie that binds.”
