Publisher Description
A seemingly fragile beauty, Zelda Rawle is anything but the pliant heiress the Faircombe family expected. Once her wedding to the heir is over, she intends to carry out her own plans. They don't include the towering enigma that is the estate's shepherd.
Lord Geoffrey Eliot will play his sheep-herding part as long as it takes to learn Miss Rawle's secrets. The laughing, peculiar Miss Rawle would make a poor lady of Faircombe, and he's made an unbreakable promise to protect his family.
The closer the mismatched pair become, the greater the danger that Zelda will miss her chance at her lifelong dream - and that Geoffrey will shatter his family by falling in love with the woman intended for his brother.
A sweet and sensual romance of two people who had to meet to find the world at their feet.

He Stole the Lady is a historical regency romance novel with steamy moments and sweet ones, of about 430 pages.
It features a big man with an even bigger heart, a woman who loves whiskey and saying what she thinks, an estate full of animals and the icy spring of 1814. No cliffhanger, and a Happily Ever After!
He Stole the Lady is a standalone book, but Judith Lynne fans will appreciate seeing old friends again. Lord Geoffrey makes a very large Cinderella.

He Stole the Lady
I’m so glad that the author included a young main character with a medical condition. It add such an interesting complication to the story.
Long but interesting
The story line was a bit different, mostly in a good way, but the middle dragged with unnecessary scenes. I can almost always finish a book but could not slog through this one.
Thanks for having a heroine with less than a perfect personality, body, and glowing health. (I am a retired nurse) This is the reason I gave it the middle star vs a one star.
Love story
Well written novel!thanks
