(2024)(The sixth book in the Dartmouth Diaries series)
A novel by Beverley Watts
Get ready for another helping of dizzying romance and laugh out loud comedy in ‘A Shackleford Victory’, the sixth instalment in The Shackleford Diaries (formerly The Dartmouth Diaries)
After being suspended and subsequently dismissed from her job in the National Crime Agency, Teddy Shackleford reluctantly takes refuge in the quaint town of Dartmouth at the behest of her uncle, retired Admiral Charles Shackleford. Since she holds him partly responsible for the ignominious ending of her career, Teddy thinks the least he can do is give her a temporary roof over her head.Expecting to spend the summer licking her wounds and keeping her head down, the last thing Teddy expects is to be recruited by an eccentric aristocrat to unravel a tangled web of missing titles and family inheritance.
Determined to solve the mystery, Teddy dives headfirst into her employer’s aristocratic world, but as she navigates the labyrinth of lineage and intrigue, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the enigmatic and charming Sebastian Sinclair, Fourteenth Duke of Blackmore, complicating matters in ways she could never have imagined.
Will she uncover the truth behind the tangled inheritance? And could there be an unexpected prize waiting at the end of her journey?
‘A Shackleford Victory’ is a delightful contemporary romantic comedy that will have you laughing and cheering for Teddy as she navigates previously uncharted waters of friends, family and unexpected love.
