Now at age sixteen, she realized that none of her crushes were nearly as powerful as the one she had on the boy from her childhood. She's not what she appears, and he's difficult to read. She's not naive and he's not a gentleman. Read on to find out what happens when their paths finally intertwine. This book can be read independently though this is the official sequel to Love Me?

Octavia Sorrell, the Countess of Kendall, had been forced into marriage by her father and brother when she was only fifteen years old. Just after her sixteenth birthday, she gave birth to twins; Charles and Olivia. Two years later, after Lord Kendall's scandalous death, and fearing the gossip it had caused her, she began to live the life of a recluse, only visiting her closest neighbours, Sir Freddie Sommerville and his wife and old school friend, Katie. However, when Charles was ten years old and woefully underprepared for the vigours of an English aristocratic education at Eton, Freddie, who was also her son's guardian persuades her to employ a tutor for her son, to prepare him for school. Captain Alexander Fallbrook, after returning a hero from the battle of Waterloo, was living the life of a libertine.

When Alex arrived in Yorkshire, he was somewhat taken by the beautiful young Countess and decided that his time in the country may not be as dull as he first expected. However, as he became better acquainted with the young widow, he recognised a fellow soul in torment. Can Alex overcome four years of guilt, or will he be unable to let go of the past to embrace his future?

||COMPLETED|| ||STAND ALONE BOOK|| ||NO SEQUEL|| - • Highest Rank : #58 in General Fiction on 02.08.2018. "Miss. Varma, don't make false statements. I know you love me. You're the one who proposed to me in the park, ain't it? Try to deny it and you'll see my bad side." Aditya warned her in a cold tone which made her shiver internally but she had seen more worse. "Mr. Reddy, I don't like you. I didn't propose to you, understand? To be honest you haven't been showing me some saint-like side of yours that now you'll show me your bad side or whatsoever." Nisha said in a calm tone but her demeanor shouted that she didn't give a damn. "Miss. Varma, just accept it that you like me because I'm pretty sure it's you who proposed to me. I've even caught you looking at me intensely, so cut the act and just admit it." Aditya said arrogantly and picked up his pencil, making some notes. "Mr. Reddy, listen to me carefully and register this in that peanut sized brain of yours; I can't like you. Understand?" Nisha said pointing her index finger at him. "Why can't you?" He questioned her in a challenging way, smirking. "Because I'm a homosexual woman." Nisha shouted, out of frustration but regretted it as soon as what she had said registered in her mind. - Started - 03.04.2018 Ended - 26.08.2018
