I am working
my way through all of Liz Fielding’s stories and am thoroughly enjoying myself
I have a long way to go yet but I can highly recommend this one it is a sweet read
that has a fair bit of misunderstanding in it between the hero and heroine but
will definitely have you smiling at the end.
Charlotte
Palmer has lived since her birth at Beaumont Court she comes from a long line
that has worked for the owners and now Charlotte is working for Richard
Beaumont the current Baronet writing the history of Beaumont Court and learning
about the generations that have come before since Harry Beaumont built it in
the 16th century. Charlotte is very fond of Harry since she first
saw his portrait as a young girl and is loving the wok she is doing but sadly
Richard passes away and the new heir is about to arrive what will happen to the
place Charlotte loves and cares so much for.
Matthew Ryan
arrives after the death of his uncle for the reading of the will but he is
first captivated by a young beauty walking the grounds while he is riding a
black mount and their meeting is filled with sparks and a need that is not
taken up. So when they meet formally there are still sparks and Charlotte is
not happy at all. Matthew does not want to keep the estate it will take a lot
of thought and investment and he has been hurt by the Beaumont’s and has never
any of his relatives. He and Charlotte come to an arrangement regarding
finishing her work at the estate which is going to keep them together ooh but
there are many emotions and lots of angst between these two.
Matt is so
very similar to the Harry Beaumont in looks and comes across as a tough and
determined boss but there is a lot more to Matt and Charlotte is so determined
to do what she can to get him to keep Beaumont Court throw in a neighbour who
has their sights set on Matt and poachers and a little dog called Daisy, that
their journey becomes a very uphill battle there seems to be problems that are
everywhere and so many misunderstandings between them but the pull between them
is so strong. This one had me so invested in the story I was almost yelling at
them but what a fabulous story one that kept me turning the pages I loved the
setting the story line old buccaneers and family history and that sensual pull
throughout yes I can highly recommend this one.
5/5 stars for a sweet read
