A New York Times and USA Today bestseller from Grace Burrowes's lush Regency series, featuring the beloved Windham family and a duke obsessed with getting his sons married…

A weary soldier home from war

A beautiful neighbor who could be his salvation

Even in the quiet countryside, Devlin St. Just, the oldest but illegitimate son of the Duke of Moreland, can find no peace. His idyllic estate is falling down from neglect and nightmares of war give him no rest. Then Devlin meets his new neighbor...

With her confident manner, the lovely Emmaline Farnum commands all of Devlin's attention, even when he realizes the previous owner's five-year-old daughter has become a fixture on his property. Calling on Emmaline to become the girl's governess, he soon learns that she can nurture him too, in ways no other woman ever has before…

Kat blu 360 ,

It was a good book. Very heartfelt. But

But I hate the ending. There should have been a
Prologue. Too up in the air.

Strong Showing

Not as strong as The Heir despite sharing some plot and characterization similarities. I did enjoy the continuation of the series as the family is very interesting. Devlin and Emmie are most certainly a very suitable match.

Boring Plot

This book dragged on for so long. I loved the back story about Devlin but Emmaline was just plain annoying. She doesn't deserve to be with Devline. I couldn't even finish the book. The Heir was great but this didn't even come close.
