Bestselling author Lynn Morris weaves an inspirational Regency era romance rich in period detail.
The Honourable Miss Valeria Segrave is truly the unwanted stepchild. When her mother married the Earl of Maledon, he took Valeria into his home, but he never accepted her. When her stepfather suddenly dies, Valeria must take charge of her gentle, distraught mother and the vast estate that now belongs to her six-year-old half-brother, the new Earl of Maledon.
Valeria finds every day a struggle as she tries to establish authority with servants, stewards, and solicitors--all men. The only person that can help her is a distant kinsman of the Earls of Maledon, Alastair, Lord Hylton. Handsome and noble, she senses under the veneer of his flawless and gentlemanly behavior that she does not quite measures up to Lord Hylton's expectations of a refined lady. In light of that, accepting his help and feeling under a burden of gratitude to him is almost unbearable.
When at last Valeria goes to London for the glittering Season, she gets into a series of escapades. To her chagrin, it seems that Lord Hylton is always there to witness, criticize, and correct her behavior. But if she must engage in this battle of wits and wills with Alastair, Valeria vows she's going to win--one way or another.

I loved that this compelling novel was set in the regency era. This novel has a good balance of friendship, romance, tragedy, drama, hope and faith with very interesting and detailed characters that will capture your heart. This historical novel is engaging and will sweep you away to another time and place as you follow the lives of Valerie, Alistair and their families in this novel.

Enjoyable read
Valeria Segrave has to grow up quickly when the death of her unloving Step Father thrusts her into an indelible position of dealing with obstinate men, a fragile mother and a very young brother who by law, is now the new Earl of Maledon. Valeria is strong willed and determined to help her family out, though naive in the ways of society. A distant relative, Lord Hylton, steps in to help her navigate through the legal, social and emotional stresses that arise. Unfortunately, it seems to Miss Segrave, he is always around to witness her escapades and extricate her from them, and never around when life and its many decisions are running smoothly. Why does she always look for Lord Hylton? Why has he removed himself from her company just when she needs it most? A very enjoyable read, full of romance in a time gone past. \\r\\n
