Not all storms cause destruction and chaos. Some make new paths and bring clarity. The difference is found within.
The Honorable Caroline Storme has been furious with life since she was twelve. Sent to an asylum due to a suspected mental deficiency, she has finally returned to London, not with vengeance in mind but freedom. Wanting nothing more than to pursue her passions in peace, she vows to ignore everyone around her, until she meets the one man who understands her… a big, barrel-chested sailor with tattoos and a devastating grin.
Mr. John Butler is in London to reconnect with his drunken, baron father before the man pickles himself. The family holdings are deeply in debt and decay, but he doesn’t care about them. Sailing holds his heart as well as his easy, carefree existence in Ipswich. That is until he runs into a woman in Hyde Park. There’s a quiet strength about her but also a banked fury that stokes his own… a woman with stormy eyes and a mouth that’s begging to be kissed.
When London proves too much for them both, John is quick to offer a solution: a marriage of convenience despite vehement protests from the Storme clan. It will give her freedom as well as settling his future.
But his blackguard of a father threatens the hasty union that is suddenly filled with affection and primal desire, the sacrifices offered might be too high for either of them to pay once love is involved.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Caroline Storme was commited to an asylum when she was still a child. After twenty years and the death of her father, her cousin brought her home. However because the family have trouble understanding how she communicates, she feels that she has really just changed to a more guilded prison.John Butler is the best friend of one of the Storme cousins. He can see that Caroline just needs someone to free her to be herself. There is only one way to help her.
Our hero has his own demons to put to rest. He's not comfortable mixing with the "ton". He's much happier as a working man. Can our heroine cope outside of the protection of her well meaning family??.
This is a very unusual and emotional historical romance, filled with wonderful characters and humour. Even only as far back as Queen Victoria's Reign, if someone was just a little "different", their families would lock them away from society. It took people like our hero to see past the differences to the person inside.
This book can be read on it's own, but I personally think it more enjoyable to read the series in order. The Stormes are a volatile family.
Good fun.
