In a garden where hearts hide, Felicity’s care blossoms Arthur’s spirit, nurturing a love that mends the deepest wounds.
Miss Felicity Thornhill, an aspiring botanist, relishes the tranquility of her countryside estate, dedicating her life to botanical studies in memory of her late aunt. Her encounter with Arthur Langley, the scarred Earl of Lanwood, at a summer house party, brings an unexpected twist to her peaceful existence. Their mutual interest in whist fosters a connection that evolves into something deeper, creating a bond of understanding and healing.
Arthur Langley, the brooding new Earl of Lanwood, found himself unexpectedly inheriting the distinguished title six months earlier. Burdened by his past and the scars of war, he seeks solace in his secluded gardens. His life takes a turn upon meeting Felicity. Her vibrant spirit, passion for botany, and their shared love of whist ignite a new spark within him, challenging his preference for solitude.
A blossoming connection unfolds between Felicity and Arthur, their mutual admiration deepening into a more significant bond. However, their emerging romance faces challenges: Arthur’s reluctance to fully open his heart and Felicity’s unwanted suitor complicate matters, creating a difficult love triangle. Concurrently, Arthur’s encounter with a past love reawakens old feelings, adding complexity to his current desires. Felicity must deftly maneuver through the intricate dynamics of love and ambition, while Arthur grapples with the choice between societal expectations and his heart’s true calling.
* Meet the protagonists, Felicity Thornhill, a nature-loving botanist enjoying her quiet estate, and Arthur Langley, the brooding Earl of Lanwood with scars from war. Their chance of meeting at a summer party leads to a bond over whist and a blossoming romance. Yet, they face hurdles—Felicity’s persistent suitor and Arthur’s old flame. As their love deepens, Felicity juggles emotions, while Arthur wrestles with duty versus desire.
No cheating, no cliffhangers, and a happily ever after full of romance.
