Who wants to play a dark and mysteriously tempting rake of an English Lord looking for a fiery American Heiress? Expect scandals! Potential arranged marriages, kinky sex and blossoming affection! True Historical accuracy NOT required.
The year is 1869 and Ethel Miller is a rich heiress.
As wild and untamed as the mountains she grew up in Ethel, is far from the biddable British Ladies he finds herself surrounded by. Her father had been a cattle rancher before the war and during he’d made a name (and a lot of wealth) for himself. A large chunk had been invested into the first Transcontinental Railroad and voila! At the ripe age of one and twenty Ethel Miller is thrust into a world unlike any she’d known before.
While herself and her father had been contented to return to the simple but, hard life of a rancher, Mrs. Miller had other plans. Grander plans. Plans to turn her eldest daughter into Nobility and sends Ethel and her sisters with a well respected English Governess into British High Society where men with titles and dwindling wealth are scrambling for any coin to save their shrinking properties and tenants.
But, Ethel is far from inclined to marry or see her sisters married off to some stingy stuffed up Lord or Duke that barely even liked her.
Hopeless romantic at heart Ethel vows to only marry for love if at all. She was a born and bred hard working American. She knew her way around wild horses, dense forest and bare mountain, not fancy dresses and grand ballrooms. Well educated and intelligent (despite the gossip surrounding her) Ethel, knows better than to give into the whispered nothings of hard pressed suitors. Or the titterings of old spinsters and widows about her supposed time lived with the Natives of the United States.
That is until him...
The Lord that sweeps her off her feet. He doesn’t disdain her choice of riding habit or her spirited and fiery personality and wit. He tempts her like no man ever has, daring her to believe that she could truly find love in cold and damp England. Though, her well guarded heart longs for the wild mountains and sun stained prairies of her youth.
