Publisher Description
Sometimes, when a gentleman wants to secure his future and mend the errors of his past, all he needs is Faith.
Tom Bertram spent his life chasing pleasure until a gate proved too tall for his horse. Now, having faced his own mortality, he is a changed man. He plans to be all that he should be so that he can secure his legacy. If only he had paid more attention to his lessons, he would be able to fix his follies on his own. However, he did not, and now, he must enlist the help of a financial expert.
Faith Eldridge has witnessed the devastation of living to excess and possesses the skills necessary to protect her future from such calamity. Despite her best efforts to keep her activities secret, her talent has not gone unnoticed, and she soon finds herself in a position to lend aid to a gentleman in desperate need of assistance in recouping his losses.
When Tom meets Faith, he doesn't realize that they have met before -- well, they have sort of met before -- but that's a secret Faith hopes to keep Tom from discovering. However, when her student turns out to be as clever as he is handsomely distracting, and when Tom finds his tutor more than a trifle alluring, can any secret be concealed? And when tragedy strikes, can Tom secure both his legacy and his heart, or will his heart be the price he must pay for his former behaviour?
Tom: To Secure his Legacy is the fourth episode in Leenie Brown's Other Pens series of books. If you like well-written stories with charmingly resolute heroes bent on bettering their lives and practical yet compassionate heroines determined to choose their own future, then you will enjoy this story about overcoming the past and learning that love is far more valuable than a healthy financial portfolio.
So, put the kettle on, grab your copy of Tom: To Secure his Legacy, and discover with Tom and Faith that taking risks is necessary when securing a happily ever after.

Tom and Faith’s journey to HEA . . . Clean historical romance.Beachwalk01
Leenie Brown has turned into one of my all time favorite regency romance authors. Her series of novellas lack nothing and this one continued to have me swiping the pages in anticipation. So far each writing I have read is able to be a standalone novella but they offer so much insight into the lives of the characters and the surrounding characters that it has you wanting to know more and thankfully she delivers these stories in other books. This story was entertaining while at the same time offering a glimpse into the impact decisions made by the men in this time period affected the women. The story of Tom and Faith is well written with just the right amount of mystery, adversity and love. For fans of Jane Austen this is clean historical read not to be missed.
