Synopsis

Book 2 of the Eton Cottage series by E.G. Verot. This book focuses on Albert Berry and Lily Calderwood's Love story. Our story begins in England during the early 1800s, or as it is more commonly known, the Regency era. Marriage is common amongst the residents of England-love is a rarity. Lily Calderwood was fortunate to find love during her first season. Lord Calderwood was a kind and caring man who showered her with affection. Sadly, his health took an unexpected turn, stealing his life a mere five years after their wedding. Since befriending her young neighbor and, in later years, chaperoning her into London society, Lily is reunited with an old friend. Albert Berry knew the moment he met Lily Calderwood that she was exquisite. He searched the world, hoping to find a woman who compared to her. Unable to do so, Albert returned to London with little hope left for finding a love match. Until one fortuitous night when he was reunited with the woman he has never been able to forget. Their years of friendship have evolved into a passionate devotion, with their hearts knowing long before their minds. With no doubt of how strongly they feel for one another, the struggle to integrate this united devotion with their individual lives has forced them to keep their love a secret. Will they allow others to dictate the rest of their lives or will they finally choose each other above all else?
