About this ebook

"Highly entertaining, refreshing, and witty. . . . [A] beautifully written, delightful, and faith-filled romance of two endearing hearts."

--Grace Hitchcock, award-winning author of My Dear Miss Dupre

Not much happens in Theodosia Stapleton's tiny Northumberland town. Certainly not to her. She has resigned herself to spinsterhood, caring for her ailing mother in the home of her grandfather the general. When her dear friend dies and leaves behind a daughter, it's simple enough to take the child into her own quiet world. That is, until her ward's famous uncle unexpectedly arrives and throws Theo's tidy orbit completely off-kilter.

Fame was the last thing Daniel Balfour sought when he fought in the Peninsular War. But his brave exploits caught the attention of the King, and now the honors he was given hound him everywhere . . . even on his rushed trip to rescue his orphaned niece.

Theo's quick wit and warm smile quickly reassure him that Rebecca is in good hands. He finds himself free to swiftly return to London and his responsibilities. But those caring hands are beginning to look like they could also safely hold his heart, and he's tempted to linger. Unfortunately, marriage is simply not in the cards; the army is spouse enough for him.

Then an accident and a scandal lead both Theo and Daniel to discover that their best-laid plans may not have been what God designed for them after all . . .

Ratings and reviews

This book was everything you hope for in a Regency novel. Angsty situations, witty banter and a moral dilemma that must be reckoned with…but not before the whole house (and town!) are all in uproar! After finishing Dawn’s Untrodden Green, I am one supremely satisfied Regency reader! The author’s presentation of this historical era, along with an excellent handle on the vocabulary and phraseology of the time, made this story an absolute delight to ingest! Very happy reader here, excellent read!

This delightful character driven story has such depth and beauty. The story’s themes of friendship, loving people for who they are and family resonated deeply with me. I adored this book. Dawn’s Untrodden Green, drew me into Theodosia and Daniel’s world and I did not want to leave. The setting, themes, and beautiful characters made this a fantastic story that I will not soon forget. I very highly recommend Dawn’s Untrodden Green.
