Greetings and Felicitations!
Don't
miss a new time-travel Regency by Susanne Marie Knight!
*** Twice widowed Constance has one wish: to be safe; to disappear from the unscrupulous gangsters hunting her. A young boy’s 3D printer unexpectedly provides a way out.
THE WIDOWED BRIDE: A Time-Travel Regency Romance Novel Culinary chef Constance
Atkins married twice and was widowed twice. She has more important things
on her mind than thinking about marrying again, especially since husband
number two’s murderers are now after her. After doing a good deed for
her young neighbor, he returns the favor by using the dragon his 3D
printer created to grant her wish for safety. Sure, Constance wakes up the
next morning safe, but definitely not in her own bed, or apartment, or
city, or even century. Stranded in the year 1814, she must use her cooking
skills to survive during London’s Great Frost Fair--a celebratory event
where merchants hawk their wares on the frozen River Thames. She comes
across a lost, motherless girl who happens to belong to the impressive
Earl of Granville, Damien Delacroix. First he hires her as a cook, then he
wants her to be his children’s nanny, then he proposes that she become
his mistress, and then... WIFE NEEDED. WHO SHALL
HE CHOSE? Damien Delacroix, the
Earl of Granville, has a dilemma. He has been happily widowed for a year,
but now realizes his son and his daughter need the steadying influence of
a mother. A woman to warm his bed would also be a good idea. While he
considers possible candidates for the position as his countess, his
daughter Katherine turns up missing at the Great Frost Fair. He finds her
being held by an unkempt guttersnipe, and threatens the street urchin with
prison, only to become aware that his daughter’s so-called abductor is
not a man but a woman. Constance turns out to be a very intriguing woman
indeed. So much so that Damien can’t stop thinking about her. Soon
Constance sweeps all other candidates aside, leaving him to desire her...
and only her... as the future Countess of Granville.
ABOUT THE BOOK: A Widow and a Dragon, and Impossible Second Chance Constance
Atkins has built a life around two certainties: she is an accomplished
culinary chef, and marriage is no longer part of her plans. After losing
her second husband--and attracting the attention of the people
responsible--she wants only one thing: a safe place to begin again. Instead,
an unexpected favor, a young neighbor, and an ingenious 3D-printed dragon
send Constance far beyond the dangers of her own time. She awakens in
1814, where the Great Frost Fair has transformed the frozen River Thames
into a bustling world of shops, food, and spectacle. Her cooking skills
earn her a place at the estate of Damien Delacroix, the Earl of Granville,
but the household brings complications of its own. Damien needs a mother for his children and begins to see Constance as far more than an intriguing stranger. Constance has sworn off husbands, yet the earl’s family, his desire, and the unfamiliar world around them challenge every promise she has made to herself. For readers who enjoy Regency romance, time travel, determined heroines, family drama, danger, and a touch of the impossible, The Widowed Bride offers a spirited journey from modern peril to unexpected love.
