About this ebook

She is in love.
So is he.
If only it were as simple as that.

Lady Eleanor Abbott is in love. However, the one man who manages to send her heart into an uproar with a single smoldering look is the one man she is forbidden to marry. As the fifth son of a baron, the man who conquered Eleanor’s heart is not the match her mother wants her to make. Instead, Eleanor finds herself faced with an endless stream of appropriate suitors and under stern instructions to choose a suitable husband before the season’s end.

Henry Waltham, fifth son of Baron Caulfield, has always considered himself fortunate to have grown up in a close-knit family. However, now that his brother’s less than respectable reputations ruin his every chance to marry the woman he loves, Henry finds himself torn between simply whisking her off to Gretna Green - and let propriety be damned! - and the deep desire to prove himself an honourable man.

However, not everything is as it seems, and soon Eleanor and Henry realise that the key to their future can only be found in the past.

Ratings and reviews

4.5 Stars Lady Eleanor Abbott is in love with Henry Waltham & he’s in love with her. However Eleanor’s mother he Dowager Countess of Stanhope won’t give her consent. A lovely short story, which is well paced & has lovely characters. Henry & Eleanor featured in the previous novella ‘Rules to be Broken’ & I couldn’t wait for their story. The couple need to find out why Lady Stanhope is so against them, there’s also Henry’s brother Nick who is slowly but surely destroying himself. Things come to a head at the house party that Arthur & Diana hold. Whilst this short story could be read as a stand alone I’d definitely recommend reading Rules to be Broken as the pair work in tandem. I thoroughly enjoyed the novella & look forward to more especially as Griffin & Winifred are back. My honest review is for a special copy I voluntarily read

About the author

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 an 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.
