A Deal with a Cruel Earl
(2024)(The sixth book in the Regency Expedient Marriages series)
A novel by Dorothy Sheldon
"You want an arranged marriage, not one of love, so why would I be any different to my sister? I come with the same dowery. Why not me?"
A monster haunts Rycroft Hall. Everyone knows that. But when Prudy is forced to marry Hall’s somber tenant, she quickly learns that the scarred Earl is a man to run from but the one who might need saving…
Prudy's father has always been obsessed with growing his social influence. So, when the local Marquess is ready to sell off his nephew to the highest bidder, Jasper Copperwell is first in line to trade in his daughter. But Prudy's sister Catherine is so very in love with another. How can she allow her dearest companion to give up everything she adores to be married to the haunting spectre that lurks around Rycroft Hall.
Claiming the bridal veil for herself, Prudy has no idea what to expect from the gothic manor on the hill, its skulking master or the threat that hunts women in the woods. One thing she does know, however, is that no-one is born a monster. Perhaps if she can unpick the horrors that have moulded Gideon Rycroft into a creature of the night, she can find a way to make this marriage work. What she doesn't expect is that she might be the one who needs to change and grow, if she is to heal the man whom she is coming to love...
*If you like powerful characters, loving Duchesses, and a marvelous depiction of the majestic Regency and Victorian era, this is the novel for you.
It is an enchanting regency romance of 66,000 words.
No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a sweet happily ever after.
