A return of devotion

Kristi Ann Hunter

eBook - 2019

Daphne Blakemoor was perfectly happy living in her own secluded world for twelve years. She had everything she needed--loved ones, a true home, and time to indulge her imagination. But when ownership of the estate where she works as a housekeeper passes on, and the new marquis has an undeniable connection to her past, everything she's come to rely upon is threatened. William, Marquis of Chemsford's main goal in life is to be the exact opposite of his father. Starting a new life in the peace and quiet of the country sounds perfect until his housekeeper turns his life upside down. They've spent their lives hiding from the past. Can they find the courage to face their deepest wounds and, perhaps, find a new path for the future t...ogether?

Review by Booklist Review

Why couldn't he have just stayed in London, like the last marquis!? That is the first thing that Daphne Blakemoor thinks when she hears that William, the new Marquis of Chemsford, is coming to inspect Haven Manor, the estate his late father had won in a card game years ago. Now everything Daphne has been doing for the last 12 years at Haven Manor is in danger, especially if William should happen to meet young Benedict during his stay. One glance at Benedict and his remarkable resemblance to William, and the questions will never end. Which means that as his housekeeper, Mrs. Brightmoor, Daphne will just have to make sure that she keeps the two of them far apart. In the second sterling addition to her Haven Manor series, following A Defense of Honor (2018), RITA Award-winning Hunter gracefully fashions a quietly compelling story that deftly explores love, compassion, family, and forgiveness within the context of an impeccably rendered Regency setting.--John Charles Copyright 2019 Booklist
