Book Overview
Tragedy drove him into unwilling exile. Death demands his reluctant return.
In the last decade, he has answered to many names. Now the actor known to Paris as L’Inconnu must resume his real identity and become the Earl of Sarre … a man he no longer knows how to be and whose name, thanks to the malice of a friend turned enemy, remains tarnished by scandal.
Revenge, so long avoided, slithers temptingly from the shadows.
To Marcus Sheringham, Caroline Maitland, grand-daughter of a wealthy wool-merchant, is the solution to his mountain of debts. Knowing she will be married for her money, Caroline never expected to find love; but neither did she bargain for a certain charming French highwayman … and a surprising turn of events.
The stage is set, the cast assembled and the Duke of Rockliffe waits for the curtain to rise.
In the wings, Lord Sarre prepares to make his entrance.
He doesn’t expect to be greeted with applause.
BIOGRAPHY Winner of four gold medals for historical romance (Readers' Favourite in 2019, Book Excellence Awards in 2019 and 2023, Global Book Awards in 2022) and fourteen B.R.A.G. Medallions, Stella Riley lives in the beautiful medieval town of Sandwich in Kent.
She is fascinated by the English Civil Wars and has written six books set in that period. These, like the 7 book Rockliffe series (recommended in The Times newspaper!) and the Brandon Brothers trilogy, are all available in audio, narrated by Alex Wyndham.
Stella enjoys travel, reading, theatre, Baroque music and playing the harpsichord. She also has a fondness for men with long hair - hence her 17th and 18th century heroes.
This is one of my favorite series, I love ALL the characters. Great combination of historical fiction and character development. These books make me laugh out loud and shed a few tears!
