Fear and Fortitude (The Bow Street Wallflowers #1)

Description

Unwilling to be sold as brood mare in an arranged marriage, Lady Juliana Sinclair decides her own future, and runs. But disaster strikes, leaving her at the mercy of the first man that finds her.

Leonard Notley is tortured by his past and living in hiding with a young ward that he knows is better off without him. While hunting in the woods, he comes across a lost woman and feels compelled to help her.

Together, they navigate the pain of trust and vulnerability, and as the passion ignites between them, their carefully crafted facades begin to crumble.

With unknown dangers lapping at their heels and a search for Lady Juliana begun, will their time together be cut short? Or will their brief acquaintance be enough to put a balm on their injured souls and begin healing their wounds?
