When an innocent young lady’s elopement goes wrong, a notorious rake comes to her rescue in this Regency romance.

England, 1820. Miss Silver Meredith is beautiful, innocent, and just eighteen years old. She’s also vulnerable to the worst sort of scandal after an attempted elopement goes wrong. Her reputation and her future depend on the silence of one man . . .

Adam, Marquess of Rockingham, is a rake from the most notorious of noble families. He possesses a dangerous combination of ruthlessness and charm. He’s also still smarting about a graceless rejection from the only woman to whom he’s ever proposed marriage, the only woman he’s ever loved—Silver Meredith.

And now Silver’s fate is in Adam’s hands. . . .

Meer oor die skrywer

Mary Brendan was always a keen reader of historical romance, and she decided to try her hand at writing a Regency novel during her youngest son's afternoon naps. What started as a lazy lunchtime indulgence, sandwich in one hand, notepad in the other, soon developed into a highly enjoyable part-time occupation. When time permits, she relaxes by browsing junk shops for curios and antiques, or by visiting the local Tandoori for a prawn dansak and a glass or two of red wine.
