Description
At eighteen, Kate Worthington feels an insatiable restlessness that makes settling down impossible. To escape her mother's meddling influence, she dreams of exploring exotic India with her spinster aunt. However, when the opportunity arises, Kate finds herself making a bargain: she'll be allowed to travel if she spends a season at the family's wealthy estate, Blackmoore, where she must secure and reject three marriage proposals. With the help of her childhood friend Henry Delafield, Kate sets out to collect her proposals. But as they navigate this delicate dance, their own dreams begin to unravel in unexpected ways. Set against the backdrop of Northern England in 1820, Blackmoore is a captivating tale of romance, intrigue, and devotion that explores the complexities of listening to one's heart. This Regency romance masterfully weaves together themes reminiscent of Jane Austen and the Bronte sisters, creating a page-turning story that will keep you engaged until the very end.
