Book 1 in Castles & Courtship
She’s determined to hold on to her family’s legacy. He’s determined to make it his own. But love has a way of upending even the best-laid plans…
Marianne Edgewood has only ever trusted one thing—Brindale Castle. The centuries-old estate is strong, unchanging, and the only true home she’s ever known. When a distant heir suddenly inherits the property, she refuses to give up her place within its walls. No matter what it takes, she must find a way to stay.
At last, Peregrine Osborne has everything he’s ever wanted—his uncle’s approval, the admiration of his London peers, and now, the deed to a magnificent castle in Kent. Restoring Brindale to its former glory should be his greatest triumph. If only its infuriatingly stubborn—and undeniably captivating—resident weren’t standing in his way.
As Perry embarks on ambitious renovations, Marianne resists at every turn, challenging his plans and unsettling his heart in ways he never expected. The more he fights for control of Brindale, the more he begins to question what—or who—truly makes a house a home.
A battle of wills soon turns into something far more precarious… a battle of hearts. And when Marianne and Perry are forced to choose between pride and passion, they must decide if winning the castle is truly worth losing each other.
A heartwarming, closed-door Regency romance filled with wit, charm, and slow-burning romance. Perfect for fans of clean and wholesome historical love stories.
