Welcome to Spindle Cove, where the ladieswith delicate constitutions come for the sea air, and men in their prime are . . . nowhere to be found.
Or are they?
Spindle Cove is the destination of choice forcertain types of well-bred young ladies: the painfully shy, young wives disenchanted with matrimony, and young girls too enchanted with the wrong men; it is a haven for those who live there.
Victor Bramwell, the new Earl of Rycliff, knows he doesn’ t belong here. So far as he can tell, there’ s nothing in this place but spinsters . . . and sheep. But he has no choice, he has orders togather a militia. It’ s a simple mission, made complicated by the spirited, exquisiteSusanna Finch— a woman who is determined tosave her personal utopia from the invasion ofBram’ s makeshift army.
Susanna has no use for aggravating men; Bram has sworn off interfering women. The sceneis set for an epic battle… but who can be namedthe winner when both have so much to lose?
