The Heir’s Return

Harry Ashcombe, heir to the Earldom of Ravenshire, has spent years trying to forget the only woman he ever wanted.

As the steward’s daughter, Mina Fletcher grew up at his side, sharing childhood adventures, whispered confidences, and a bond that deepened into something more. But Mina knew her place, and Harry knew his duty; her station made them an impossible match, and, should Harry pursue her, it would only invite scandal and destroy her prospects.
When Mina’s father arranges her marriage, Harry flees his estate–and the heartbreak he could never confess.
Years later, the death of his father brings Harry home to find the earldom on the brink of ruin–and comes face-to-face with the woman who still haunts his dreams. Widowed, intelligent, and more captivating than ever, Mina has taken over her father’s role as steward and is fighting to save his inheritance from financial disaster.
Working together to save the estate, Harry and Mina discover that time has done little to extinguish the feelings they once buried. As autumn settles over the countryside, they must decide whether the future is worth risking everything they once sacrificed.

A sweeping Regency romance filled with longing, forbidden desire, and a hard-won happily ever after, The Heir’s Return proves that some loves are too powerful to be forgotten.
