The Disappointed Daughter
(2025)(A book in the Cousins of Cavendish Square series)
A novel by Rachel Knowles
A blackmail threat. A fake engagement. A runaway bride. Join the Cousins of Cavendish Square in three clean and sweet Regency romances.
Lady Dorothea Fitzwater knows what it feels like to be in love—and how much it hurts when it ends. Branded a jilt after her brief engagement to Lord Treadway, Thea embraces the reputation society gives her, rejecting every gentleman who seeks her hand. She yearns to love again, but builds barricades around her heart, fearing more disappointment.
A younger son with no prospects, Montague Pope has carved himself a place in society, shocking the ton with his garish waistcoats, and entertaining them with his verse. Only one person inspires Monty to write poisonous poetry that makes his audience squirm—Lady Dorothea Fitzwater. The woman who broke his best friend’s heart.
Monty sees a second chance for Lord Treadway to find happiness with Thea, but fails to persuade his friend even to talk to her. Desperate for the couple to be reconciled before Thea’s father banishes her to the country, he is forced to take matters into his own hands.
What Monty doesn’t reckon on is the consequences of his actions, and when his feelings for Thea grow, he must decide just how much he is willing to sacrifice for his best friend’s happiness.
Set in London in 1814, this novella by the co-author of the popular Regency History blog is rich in historical detail and includes a glossary and historical notes.
Part of the Cousins of Cavendish Square series, which can be read in any order, The Disappointed Daughter is a clean and wholesome, faith-based, standalone Regency romance with its own happily ever after.
Other books in the series are:
The Discarded Companion by Rosanne E Lortz
The Disenchanted Heiress by Iris Lim
Genre: Historical Romance
