Miss Ashbury and the Anatomy of Mending a Heart

In Vera's defense, the man certainly looked like an intruder…

Miss Vera Ashbury has always done precisely what her mother says…until now. When she absconds to the countryside to support her dearest friend, Vera can't possibly expect the repercussions that follow. Newly alone and penniless, she throws herself on the mercy of others, only to find herself house-mates with the most boorish man of her acquaintance.

In Stephen's eyes, Miss Vera Ashbury is a cunning charlatan, nothing more…

Lord Winthrop feels he deserves a bit of rest and relaxation after doctoring the populace of India for six years. He's keen to forget his broken heart—along with all eligible ladies in general. But when he arrives home to find a particularly violent one living in his own house, he's convinced she must have nefarious plans for his dear mother's fortune…

Can Vera and Stephen look past their initial impressions and find forgiveness—and something far more precious—on the other side?
