Herefordshire, England. 1830...

Rose Janeway had heard rumours of Killian Redbourne's prowess with women. The new earl of Pembridge was infamously wicked and utterly masculine...and just the thing to tempt the passionate widow into taking a lover. But as their days of ecstasy flew by, Rose feared that Killian would return to London, leaving her beloved community destitute and her heart broken. Unless she can persuade him to stay in town and in her bed.
