Her Father's Daughter: Beautiful And Moving Historical Romance
The marriage of Maxwell Giles Alexander Seer, The Most Noble the Marquis of Deerham, to the Lady Louisa Markham, is not a love match.
The bridegroom is merely honouring his father's word to her grandfather and the bride, some 13 years younger, has no alternative, thanks to her late father's hedonistic lifestyle and the squandering of his family's wealth.
Lady Louisa is no beauty - she is the first to admit it - but her vibrant copper coloured hair and large green eyes make a striking combination. And when Deerham first calls on Louisa, he sees those mesmerizing laughter-filled eyes light up with ease. Her open nature and mischievous sense of the ridiculous, he instantly realises, are both irresistible and refreshing.
But this is 18th century England. A time when marriages of convenience are somewhat ordinary. So when, despite her mamma's warnings, Louisa finds herself falling in love with Deerham, it seems their marriage is doomed.
To add to the equation, one of her father's hardened gambling cronies - Digby Singleton - a deceitful man with dwindling funds, has a strong dislike for Louisa's husband and an unshakeable determination to bring about his downfall as revenge for scuppering his wicked plans.
Will Louisa make her new husband happy, or will her mamma's warnings ring true?
Will Deerham ever let her know his true feelings?
Will Louisa become embroiled in Singleton's revenge plan?
Are the pair destined for disaster even before their first wedding anniversary celebrations?
