As you know, summer is a great time to relax and enjoy the sun. When the weather outside is hot, I love to have a nice picnic near a river or lake. I love watching the sun's rays dance off of the water's surface while I eat a sandwich, sip a nice cold beer, and enjoy some fresh-cut watermelon.
The farmers in my novel, To Love An Irishman, are no exception. Sometimes the only great place to cool off is in a nearby river or lake.
Upon his death in 1823, English nobleman, Lord
Peyton leaves his daughter Lady Aveline with two choices—stay single and
inherit only a small farm in Ireland, where she might just be able to eke out a
living, or get married and live in luxury, inheriting all his wealth and property.
Fiercely independent, Aveline heads for Ireland only to run afoul of her
father’s farm manager, the devastatingly handsome Ciaran O’'Devlin. Alone in a
strange country, Aveline yearns for love and friendship, but Ciaran offers only
criticism and disdain. Confused and angered by strange visions and her growing
attraction to Ciaran, Aveline is determined to make the farm prosper—despite the
insufferable Irishman.
He has a secret he cannot
reveal...
Ciaran mistrusts Aveline’s intentions and
refuses to admit that a willful, English
woman now owns the farm that should have been his. Although he insists Aveline
should go back to England, he cannot deny their budding passion. Yet, he knows—even
if she doesn’t—that nothing will come of it. Not only can’t a poor Irishman
marry an English noblewoman, but when Aveline learns of his past, she’ll want
nothing more to do with him. Ciaran has always known that each decision carries
a consequence, but it’s only when he stands to lose Aveline that he realizes
what a heavy price his past decisions may have.
