As Lord Adam Beresford left Ashwood, Hertfordshire for the training and education of a gentleman, he promised to return and marry his childhood best friend, and the only girl he could see himself marrying, Grace Denham. Neither of them foresaw that it would be twelve years until they would meet again. A lot has changed in that time, and their lives are vastly different. Adam became a gentleman, and everything that the heir to a Dukedom ought to be. Grace remained in Ashwood and became a housemaid to support her family. But as their lives intertwine once more, their childhood promise bubbles to the surface, throwing their lives, the lives of their families, and the village of Ashwood into chaos.

Miss Verity Weston imagined she'd be whisked off to the country and settle into a quiet life with her only living female relative, Aunt Margaret, the Countess of Blakley. However, her father had other ideas. Fearing his sister, Margaret, would set a bad example for Verity-the countess was quite eccentric and well in her dotage-her father did the unthinkable and left her the ward of Viscount Stanbury-a mere stranger. Viscount Stanbury was in too deep. A confirmed bachelor and heir to a dukedom, Julian lived his life at leisure until the unthinkable happened. However, as a gentleman, he was only as good as his word. Verity Weston had turned his life upside down, and he wanted to wring the chit's neck or kiss her senseless-depending on the moment. With Verity's exquisite beauty and dowry, settling her with an honorable husband should have been easy, yet nothing was simple when it came to Verity. A love/hate relationship, burning chemistry, and a crazy, overbearing countess collide in this thrilling and humorous Victorian Novella.
