INTRIGUE. TENSION. LOVE AFFAIRS:
In The Historical Romance series, a set of stand-alone novels, Vivian Stuart builds her compelling narratives around the dramatic lives of sea captains, nurses, surgeons, and members of the aristocracy.
Stuart takes us back to the societies of the 20th century, drawing on her own experience of places across Australia, India, East Asia, and the Middle East.

When Elizabeth Manners agreed to help take care of little Joey Randolph, she did so because she was sorry for the lonely, delicate little boy — but she certainly did not realise what a dangerous situation the child was in. It was a strange household in which she found herself.
Joey's father, Jason Randolph, was pleasant enough on the surface. but Elizabeth soon realised that he was living under a great strain. And what about Kelly, his personal assistant and chauffeur, who wasn't like any chauffeur she had ever come across? Only when she found herself sharing Joey's danger did Elizabeth begin to appreciate Kelly's worth and to see him as something quite different from the arrogant. embittered man she had imagined him to be.

Giới thiệu tác giả

Vivian Stuart was a British writer and during her writing career she had more than 70 books published in Australia, USA and the UK. Born in Berkshire in England, she spent most of her youth in Burma and India, and later lived in Hungary and Australia. During WWII, she served in the Women's Unit attached to the Indian Army; she is the holder of the Burma Star. At the age of thirty-five she began to write romantic fiction but soon devoted her attention to military and historical novels. From the warp and woof of what we call history, she has told the story of ordinary people living under the shadow of an appalling disaster, so that other ordinary people may read it with understanding, interest, and enjoyment and, perhaps, a few tears.
