To be poor but happy was all she wanted...
Katherine was gentle and diffident. Her looks were pleasant and her talents modest. The conviction grew within her that she owed her undoubted social success to the fact that she was an heiress.
With the inheritance of her fortune, Katherine becomes an overnight sensation. Suitors come from far and wide to woo her - yet none take her hand as she mistrusts them all.
But when Katherine meets Dermot, a gentleman of modest means, she is perplexed to find that he won't pursue her. And this makes him all the more attractive.
Suddenly Dermot finds out Katherine is an heiress, and she, in turn, starts putting on airs. Convinced that he only wants her for her money, Katherine believes Dermot is like all the others.
There is only one way he can prove his love. But first he must fight off the real fortune hunters...
This charming Georgian love story will surprise and delight. Perfect for fans of traditional regency writers like Jo Beverley, Loretta Chase, and Stephanie Laurens.
Mira Stables is the author of many historical fiction novels, including The Byram Succession, The Swynden Necklace, and Golden Barrier.
