About this ebook

The Brides of Bath series, Book 1

For six long years Thomas Moreland has dreamed of the beautiful young noblewoman who rescued him from death. While amassing his fortune in India, not a day passed he did not recall Felicity's fair loveliness, did not recall the silken tones of her sweet voice, did not desire to possess her. 

Now a widow, Felicity Harrison does not recognize the handsome nabob as the young man left for dead by highwayman years earlier. Though she wants nothing more than to snub the arrogant man who promises to rescue her family from financial ruin in exchange for presenting his sister to Society, she cannot snub him. She must force herself to bear his company. But the longer she is with him, the more she has to force herself to remain true to her dead husband's memory. Why is it the humbly born Thomas Moreland possesses more nobility that any man of her class? And why is it she finds it harder and harder to mourn a dead man when Thomas's virility awakens her deepest desires?

Ratings and reviews

Young woman saves the life of a man who was left for dead by robbers... years later he's still in love with her memory and seeks her out to try and get her to fall in love with him... It was an interesting story, but it could have been written better. Could have used better character development and less description of their sexual desire.

Well bred daughter of a noble who is in debt up to his neck, she has a serious crush on the Duke. His wife has died and the only concolation he can find is in Demon Rum and his brothers. Though he has children, this idiot can't see beyond his selfishness to notice the children are as shattered as he. Daughter accepts position to save children from SOB. You know how it ends.

Almost all romance novels are the same and you can pretty much guess everything that goes on and yes the ending is exactly how we want it but not every character is perfect and that every character does exactly what you think will happen. Read the excerpts for the next four books and I think I will love to read the rest of the series.
