About this ebook

Second Chance * Secret Past * Bastard Hero

 

In this second chance Regency Romance by Annabelle Anders, an independent headmistress fights to keep her all-girls school open even as the only man she’s ever loved—and lost—barges back into her life. 

 

As the daughter of a cruel marquess, Augusta Primm has fought tooth and nail to establish her independence. But now, with someone vandalizing her precious institution, and scandals turning up left and right, the school’s reputation hangs by a thread. Slowly but surely, she’s losing the fight.

 

Rowan Stewart, older brother to the Duke of Bedwell, is a bastard by birth, and an architect by trade. Despite his brother’s push for him to enter society, Rowan will never be subject to society’s prejudice again. Once was enough.

 

Until a once in a lifetime project comes along—the opportunity to rebuild the majestic Longbow Castle. It doesn’t matter that the castle is just a few miles from the school owned and run by the woman who jilted him years ago. He’s left that life behind and he’d never allow Augusta Primm to hurt him again.

 

But when she faces losing the dream she chose over him, Rowan must make a choice. Help the woman he once loved or abandon her forever.

 

 The choice should be simple but with Augusta Primm, it’ll always be complicated.

Ratings and reviews

Schooled by the Bastard is book seven in Miss Primm’s Secret School for Budding Bluestockings. I can honestly say that I have read each one of the books in this series, and this book can truly be read as a stand alone. I enjoyed getting to read Augusta Primm’s story. She’s been a solid character in each of the previous books and I felt like she came alive in this one. There are quite a few steamy scenes, almost to the story’s detriment. Overall a good romance

I'm in love with the twist and turns of the series. The authors creative wit and humor makes reading the series a must. Onto the next set of books.

Excellent, exciting storyline

About the author

Married to the same man for over 25 years, I am a mother to three children and two Miniature Wiener dogs.

After owning a business and experiencing considerable success, my husband and I got caught in the financial crisis and lost everything in 2008; our business, our home, even our car. At this point, I put my B.A. in Poly Sci to use and took work as a waitress and bartender (Insert irony). Unwilling to give up on a professional life, I simultaneously went back to college and obtained a degree in Energy Management. 

And then the energy market dropped off. 

And then my dog died. 

I can only be grateful for this series of unfortunate events, for, with nothing to lose and completely demoralized, I sat down and began to write the romance novels which had until then, existed only my imagination. After publishing over thirty novels now, with one having been nominated for RWA’s Distinguished ™RITA Award in 2019, I am happy to tell you that I have finally found my place in life.

Thank you so much for being a part of my journey!
