Regency fans can rejoice in a brand-new historical romance from Jane Ashford!

Pulled from his comfortable life in Boston by agents who insist he's the Earl of Ferrington, Jonathan Frederick Merrill―Jack to everyone else―arrives in London only to face a torrent of criticism from his great-grandmother. Angry and hurt, Jack resolves to have one look at his ancestral home, and then return to America.

Harriet Finch has been carried off to her wealthy grandfather's country house, where she's seething with rebellion. She spends her days pacing the grounds, fantasizing about a way to escape the life her grandfather has planned. There she meets an intriguing, handsome rogue. What better way to flout her grandfather's rules than to flirt with a stranger he would never approve of? But when she learns Jack's true identity, Harriet is stunned and furious at the deception! Her grandfather is delighted and insists she marry the new earl.

Can Harriet accept Jack's promise to marry her when she wants nothing more than to be free, and is Jack willing to pay the price of nobility if it means he'll have to stay in England?

⭐⭐⭐⭐



Shipping company owner, Jack Merrill is a happy American,  but an urgent summons from a great grandmother he has never met,  has him coming to London.  He discovers a life filled with new responsibilities that he apparently doesn't measure up to.  This is not the life he wants. 
Miss Harriet Finch has lived in genteel poverty because her grandfather cut her mother off when she married without his approval.  Now the same man is determined that Harriet will do what his daughter wouldn't,  marry a title. The man is a terrible bully.  
Both our lead characters just want an ordinary simple life, but family pressure and responsibility are hard to defy. 
This is a fun filled,  sweet ,historical romance with good characters. It's part of a series but each book can be read on it's own.  
Good fun.
