Germany. A central European nation that is known for pretzels, beer and the chant "Ich bin ein Berliner" that echoes through the streets of the capital and through TikTok is also heard in the rest of the economic powerhouse of the EU. For a matter of fact, when its about Germany, many things come to mind, but certainly not overseas territory. Exept for maybe the small island of Sylt or the infamous Helgoland there really is not much to cover here. Well, 140 years ago that was about the same. But then came the Berlin conference on Africa, and things changed, as the new and rising german state now had the legal consent from London, Paris, Rome, Vienna, Istanbul and St. Petersburg to claim lands 5 times the size of the homeland. How the german colonies came to be, how life was there and how they met their end I will explain here.

Just when she's decided to leave the Town, Lady Cressida Belverst is forced to marry Lord Calan Haverston, the man who coincidentally knows a way out. Agreeing to marry for all the wrong reasons, can Cressida and Calan find out where their hearts truly belong? *** It is impossible to leave the Town, but one woman is determined to escape with the help of her betrothed. Lady Cressida Belverst has always been judged as a walking scandal. Oh, how she tries (on some rare occasions) to be proper! When her parents arrange for her to marry a rich lord, Cressida has had enough. She has to leave the Town because she will not be forced to live with a man she doesn't love. But what happens if the very man she's betrothed to is the only one who can help her get out? Calan Haverston, the Lord of Easton, takes the risk and helps his betrothed by using his knowledge of the Town's secrets because he is as willing as she to stay free of marriage for reasons completely different. He has dark secrets he cannot share with her, and his life is not one he can likewise open to anyone. But what happens when she leaves after awakening desires he thought he has under control? And what happens when he finds himself longing for her? Cressida goes to a completely different place, one she has only heard in stories and read in books, with hopes of finding what her heart has always longed for. But love, mystery and secrets will chase her and it will only be a matter of time before she realizes what her heart truly desires. *This story is a standalone title in the Haverston Family series.
