Marriage Upon Terms Kate Morrell

Six years earlier, tragedy changed the course of Robert Deverell's life. Now, another forces him to face up to the future and to promises he failed to keep. Six years earlier, Elizabeth Hamilton wasted her one season by falling hopelessly in love with Robert Deverell, then her life was blighted by loss and poverty. Now, she must marry or find a post as a governess. So when Mr Deverell himself offers her a marriage of convenience, upon his terms, she is dumbfounded. But when she realises that this cool stranger is no longer the tender, funny man she cannot forget, Lizzy has a few terms of her own. Both will need to surrender ground to rediscover the love they lost. But even as Lizzy finds that 'her Robert' may still be alive within the cold Mr Deverell, it seems that death still stalks her husband ... and perhaps even herself. Rich in historical detail and determined characters, this powerful romance will sweep you up into a love story and an adventure that you won't want to put down.
