Lady Theodora Worth was raised by her adoring grandfather after her parents died. Her grandfather held a mixed title - English Duke and Scottish Earl. Now, Thea has inherited the remote Scottish estate she was raised on. Her grandfather's greedy heir is challenging her claim to the title and the Ladykyrk estate. Unfortunately, in his last years, Thea's grandfather suffered from dementia and hid the charter that proved the title and estate were hers.
Thea asks her elderly neighbor for help. Lady Stella has the perfect answer for Thea. If Thea is married, the courts will most likely see things her way. And, Lady Stella's great-nephew can help Thea.
Will Cavensham is the second son of a powerful Duke. He has buried himself in helping improve his family's holdings since he was jilted as a lad. His favorite great-aunt is determined to push Lady Thea at him. As Will starts to help Thea, he starts to realize that she may be the one person he had been looking for.
I absolutely loved this book. But, it was WAY too long. After a while, I started "fast forwarding" and skimming. But, I still enjoyed reading the book. The characters were amazing. I loved Thea. She was an independent heroine that had maintained her grandfather's estate while taking care of him. I just loved Will. He was devoted to his family and waiting for the perfect woman.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher. Thank you!
