Rescuing Lady Jane / Lydia Pembroke

Book Two in the Dunsmore Heritage Series. A deceived wife, a cruel husband, a gentle and honourable man, an interrupted theft, an unexpected death, an impossible love.

Lady Jane Holbrook, now Lady Waterford, believed that her husband, James Felling, Baron Waterford, loved her – until their wedding night, when his true character was horribly revealed. Now, despairing of ever feeling safe or happy again, she has found unexpected friendship – friendship which she could wish was more, if she was not already married. When a series of terrible events reveal Lord Waterford’s perfidy, and end with him missing, presumed drowned, after the initial shock, the weight of the world seems lifted from Jane’s shoulders as she realises that she may now be released from the brutal man she once loved desperately, and free to love the man who holds her heart. But when those whom she trusted and relied on most betray her, Jane has no option but to do as her husband’s family demand, and return to Waterford Estate. Will she ever be free of the Fellings?

Mr Elliot Bevan is an architect, charged with restoring the old church in Lower Nettlefold. When he first sets eyes on the lovely, yet desolate woman who walks the path by the Nettlerush river, he feels compelled to somehow assuage her loneliness. He forms a friendship with Lady Jane knowing her to be deeply troubled, but as yet unaware of the details. In a series of dramatic events, Elliott is revealed as a long-lost heir, yet, amidst the joys of a family found, he despairs when Jane leaves without a word. But, believing his absence to be in Jane’s best interest, he vows to abide by her choice - but the world of Balls and marriageable women which he finds himself thrust into cannot remove Jane from his thoughts.
