A Lady's Honor

Synopsis

<p>On the cliffs of 19th-century Cornwall, a spirited, impetuous young woman is torn between the honor of her family and the longing of her heart.</p><p>England, 1811</p><p>A tarnished reputation. A distant home. A forced engagement to a dangerous man. When Elizabeth Trelawny flees London, she has more than one reason to run. And when her carriage, pursued by her would-be fianc&eacute;, is caught in a storm, she quickly accepts the help of a dark stranger. Anything to get back to Cornwall.</p><p>But Rowan Curnow is not exactly a stranger. He&rsquo;s not quite a gentleman either. Class disparity once kept him from courting Elizabeth . . . even if it didn&rsquo;t keep him from kissing her.</p><p>The couple elude their pursuers and reach Bastion Point, Elizabeth&rsquo;s future inheritance and the one place she calls home. But in the very act of spiriting her to safety, Rowan has jeopardized Elizabeth&rsquo;s inheritance&mdash;if her grandfather ever learns she spent the night, however innocently, in the company of a man.</p><p>When smugglers unite the pair in a reckless, flirtatious alliance&mdash;an alliance that both challenges the social norms Elizabeth has been raised to revere and rattles Rowan&rsquo;s fledgling faith in God. Elizabeth must choose between the obedience of a child and the desires of a woman: cling to the safety of her home or follow the man she loves.</p>
