An Independent Woman

Juliana Holcott has spent much of her life relying on her own resourcefulness after being treated as an unwanted dependent. When Nicholas Barre, the orphaned heir of the estate where she grew up, reenters her life, an incident at a ball costs Juliana her position as a lady's companion. Nicholas offers marriage as a practical solution, but their arrangement forces both characters to confront whether convenience can grow into genuine love. The novel is a Regency-era historical romance centered on independence, class differences, and a marriage of convenience.
