Lord Carew's Bride

Samantha Newman has completed six London seasons without finding a husband, largely due to her lingering heartbreak over an unrequited love for the Earl of Rushford. She prefers the quiet company of Hartley Wade, a landscape architect who treats her as a trusted friend rather than an object of superficial desire. As Samantha and Hartley grow closer, hidden truths about their pasts and social expectations emerge. Their developing bond challenges everything Samantha thought she knew about romance and emotional safety.
