Always the Widow

Never the Bride, Book 9

De: Emily E K Murdoch

Narrado por: Brian J. Gill

Always the widow and never again the bride—her one chance of happiness lost… Mrs. Elizabeth Howard had believed her marriage to be a love match; she was wrong. So when a stranger offers her something she simply cannot refuse, she consoles herself with the knowledge that no one will ever know.
Until nine months later. Because after her husband dies and leaves her a widow, Elizabeth does have some perks. She's well-respected, of course, and no one questions whether the child is a Howard or not…

Jacob Beauvale, Lord Westray, thought nothing of his romantic entanglement with Elizabeth Howard last year, but her widowhood and his return to town with a fiancée brings a shock in the shape of a small child with his eyes.
Gossip starts to fly as Jacob ignores his intended to pursue a woman with a child—and Elizabeth knows the facts can never be known. He's determined to have the truth. She's sworn all along that it was her late husband's child. Knowledge is in the balance and neither will give up their ground.

Will the truth of that night be more dangerous if known—and can Elizabeth and Jacob talk long enough to keep their hands off each other?
