A Noble Excavation
(2021)(The seventh book in the Bluestocking Scandals series)
A novel by Ellie St. Clair
Rose Ellis was a fraud.
Or so thought the geological community. A fossil hunter working on the shores of Lyme Regis, Rose wants to make a name for herself, on her own merit. It won’t be easy for a working-class Black woman, but she is determined not to let anything impede her goals. Especially not geologists who would prefer to discredit her than to allow a woman in their ranks.
Lord Peregrine Belmont has floated through life as the second son of an earl. A painter and a dreamer, he is often forgotten about, which is just the way he likes it – until his brother’s death changes everything. For suddenly Perry is not just Perry, but Lord Belmont, the future Earl of Sheriden. A life of duty and responsibilities await, despite his longing to retreat to his family’s home in Lyme Regis and enjoy a slow-paced life.
When Perry visits Lyme, he is immediately captivated by the stunning, intelligent woman who saves his life and, in the process, unearths a skeleton that just might change both of their futures. For despite all that stands between them – an earldom, a betrothal, and Rose’s determination not to depend on a man – they just can’t help but fall in love.
But will that love be strong enough to battle all that stands in their way?
For readers over 18 due to steamy content.
Genre: Historical Romance
