About this ebook

If Lord Donovan Trent had his way, he would spend his days carelessly wooing the women of London society. Instead, he found himself banished to the English countryside of Cornwall, forced by the decrees of his father's will to run his family's tin mines and find a country bride. The last thing the handsome lord needed was a local lass sticking her nose into his affairs, but that seemed to be exactly what the parson's daughter Corisande Easton had in mind.

Ratings and reviews

garbage.. main character is annoying.. one think is to have a "quick temper" and the other is to be aggravating, always jumping to conclusion, if i were Donovan i would have walked away within the hour. .. didnt get past 72% which is how long for her to finally start opening up....

What's a Lord to do when he is forced to the country by his father to manage the family's tin mines? Add to that he must find a bride there in order to obtain his inheritance. Donovan only wanted to stay in London, but he needed those funds. Yes, he had a good reason. But he finds more than he thought when he gets there, in the form of one strong willed woman, Corie Easton, one of three daughters of the vicar. Wow, she was almost a crusader, giving him an earful on the conditions for the miners, demanding a fair wage. Then the adventure begins! Donovan offers her a deal to marry him for a short period of time and he will take care of the miners! How could she resist? Well a lot is going on in the background that becomes evident as you continue into the story. Intrigue, suspense and of course a budding romance. I really enjoyed this tale that had well written characters and a great storyline. I would recommend and cannot wait to read more from this author and in this series!

I downloaded this book for free. Wasn't expecting much as other free books have disappointed. Wonderful story. It's definitely in the range of other books and series that I usually pay 7.99 for.

Miriam Minger says: It's been a wonderful experience to have all my novels published as eBooks, but the greatest thrill for me as a writer is when readers take the time to let me know they enjoyed my stories...

"I have read hundreds if not thousands of books in my lifetime and not once have I ever been moved to comment on one until now. This is without a doubt one of the best books I have ever read. I laughed. I cried. I remained at the edge of my seat devouring every single word you wove with this incredible story. I just wanted to let you know how deeply this story moved me and to thank you for creating it."

Wow. This one left me speechless, and thankful. I had done my job, which is to make you feel like you've dropped feet first into a world that captures your imagination and emotions so vividly you might be living and breathing the story. And that's one of the purest joys of reading, isn't it? I know it is for me, and it is my hope to continue to write books that make you live and breathe the adventure, laugh and cry, and that touch your heart.
