About this ebook

Every great family has a few secrets. The wild Randalls of Hampshire excel at them. 

A lady should be the image of elegance and calm, but those words have never applied to Mercy, Duchess of Romsey. A widow and mother, Mercy is lonely and floundering to keep the estate afloat. When she discovers the existence of Leopold Randall, her husband’s estranged cousin, Mercy immediately offers to help him locate his missing siblings if he helps her return the estate to order.

Leopold has returned to Hampshire for only one purpose—to learn the fate of his missing siblings. Unfortunately, the current duchess is clueless and out of her depth. Her struggle tugs at Leopold’s sense of duty and her bold nature tempts him unbearably. When Leopold discovers their lives are forever entwined, he vows to protect Mercy and her innocent son.

Ratings and reviews

Not a bad story at all, but all the typos made it difficult to stay in the story. Engaging another editor or some beta readers would help find those errors and give the reader a smoother time. Every plural was made into a singular with an apostrophe and it was difficult to ignore since it happened since two pages in.

A greatly enthralling story about recognising their long-lost love and family in an unexpected and astonishingly instinctive way—as if by fate!

Great read! I love Mercy, she didn't hold anything back... It was refreshing to see a her go after Leopold and not act like a whimpering Miss. I highly recommend this story.
