Publisher Description
What's a lady to do when her parents' death leaves her family destitute?
For Lady Wilhelmina Neverhartt that means marriage to a much older man. One that also agrees to support her four younger siblings. Unfortunately her new husband dies on their wedding night and leaves her fate in charge of his heir, Zachary Ward, the new Duke of Graystone.
Zachary finds Lady Wilhelmina vexing, and enchanting at the same time. At first he believes she married his uncle for his money and title, but that doesn't stop his growing desire for her. He wants her, but cannot trust her, and along the way his original beliefs no longer matter. He changes tactics and uses their battle of wills to win the lady's heart.
Only a compromise will bring these two together, but their differences might be too impossible to overcome.

A Regency Romance!
This is the first novella in The Neverhartts Series, a Regency Romance. This is a Series of interconnected stories. The story of Wilhelmina (Billie) and Zachary (Zach) is beautifully written, and fast-paced. After the passing of their parents, and for the sake of her siblings, Billie had no other choice than to marry the Duke of Graystone (Zach's uncle), an old man. Her new husband passed away unexpectedly on their wedding day. Billie is a wonderful character, strong, caring, and supportive. Zach, the new Duke of Graystone, is handsome, grumpy, possessive, and protective. I liked their banter, and their push and pull relationship. The supporting characters are interesting, and I can't wait to know more about Billie's siblings, Theodora, Christiana, Carolina, and Damon. I liked Fox, the Marquess of Foxworth! Penny Scott-Andrews did a fantastic job with the narration. She has a beautiful voice, perfect for this Regency Romance. I enjoyed it. This is a great start to the Series. Looking forward to listen to Never Disregard a Wallflower, Theodora's story, the next book in the Series.
