LADY IN DISTRESS
All books in this series are stand alone stories, but are best enjoyed in order.

Isabella is the Langley sister everyone worries about. Injured in the same accident that killed her parents, pain has changed her, forcing her to observe life from the side-lines, but after several months in a Scottish clinic she is no longer the meek and mild woman she’d once been. Now she wants to live her life, but to do so she must find out once and for all if the only man she has loved returns her feelings. If not, then she will step into society and no one will know she nurses a broken heart, because if pain has taught her one thing, it’s how to hide her feelings.
Luke Fletcher straddles two worlds, and fits into neither. He's amassed a fortune during his travels, but now back in England he struggles against prejudice and finds himself slipping back into his old life in service. Two people challenge his decision, and one of them is the woman he has loved his entire life - Isabella, a nobleman’s daughter who doesn't seem to understand that she is above his reach. Isabella wants him to come out of the shadows and stand at her side, but to do so would be to deny her the life she was born to live. Luke knows he must walk away from her, but nothing can prepare him for the pain of giving up her love. |
