“Shiveringly Gothic.”—New York Times Book Review

A PopSugar and BookBub Best Romance of 2022!


A London heiress rides out to the wilds of the English countryside to honor a marriage of convenience with a mysterious and reclusive stranger.


Tall, dark, and dour, the notorious Captain Jasper Blunt was once hailed a military hero, but tales abound of his bastard children and his haunted estate in Yorkshire. What he requires now is a rich wife to ornament his isolated ruin, and he has his sights set on the enchanting Julia Wychwood.
 
For Julia, an incurable romantic cursed with a crippling social anxiety, navigating a London ballroom is absolute torture. The only time Julia feels any degree of confidence is when she’s on her horse. Unfortunately, a young lady can’t spend the whole of her life in the saddle, so Julia makes an impetuous decision to take her future by the reins—she proposes to Captain Blunt.
 
In exchange for her dowry and her hand, Jasper must promise to grant her freedom to do as she pleases. To ride—and to read—as much as she likes without masculine interference. He readily agrees to her conditions, with one provision of his own: Julia is forbidden from going into the tower rooms of his estate and snooping around his affairs. But the more she learns of the beastly former hero, the more intrigued she becomes…

Fantastic romance

The Belle of Belgrade Square is book two in the Belles of London series. Although this book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading the first book in the series The Siren of Sussex. I loved both books. This one in particular is a masterpiece with twists and turns I never expected. Julia is a wonderful depiction of a shy Victorian lady. I felt her pain as she experienced social anxiety in crowded ballrooms and musicales. Captain Blunt is the amazing dark and fierce figure who has his own very real anxieties to master. Fantastic book!
