Lady Jane left her father, the Earl of Chadwick, and the ton behind to experience life on the stage. After a disastrous marriage, the widow is living on the edge of poverty, determined to guard her heart, when a secret admirer from her past demands a second chance.
Shy and retiring Martin Nicholas Pierce, the Sixth Duke of Somerset, has carried a torch for Lady Jane since her youth, but he is five years her junior. When she married another man, he left for Europe, determined to put her out of his mind. After returning to find Lady Jane free, he vows to replace the memories of her cursed Twelfth Night with a new beginning.
My thoughts:
Awww, I liked this. Martin was in love with Jane for years. But she married someone else, and not to mention she is 5 years older. He was a kid to her when she married.
But little did she know that her mystery penpal was Martin, and she had married the wrong man- This is not the only thing that went wrong, she wanted to sing and was shunned when she left for the opera.
Now 8 years later, in December, they meet again. He still loves her. Her station has changed. He does not want to give up, and I was all, do not give up! You two should be together. He did not care about anything and the things he did for her, awww.
Conclusion:
A very nice romance set around the holidays.
