One might consider William Kensley the most fortunate "unfortunate" young man in all of England. Or was it the exact opposite; the most unfortunate "fortunate" young man . . . more importantly, did it even matter? Apparently, it did. Inheriting a modest property upon the death of his grandfather, Williams is confronted by two family members whose jealousy and greed force him to flee for his life, heading towards the person long rumored to be his father, Lord Gresham. However, it is not the powerful lord who greets William, but his lovely daughter Isabella instead.
"Make sure you do sunshine and feel the seashore, hmm?"
"Just have to forgive dem. Even if you got to do it over and over again . . . just got to forgive dem. "

She begged him once more to meet in the garden at midnight.
“If you love me,” said the letter.
But if he loved her, he would not come at all.
Enjoy another Gothic Style Regency from Hannah Linder.
The accidents are not a matter of chance. They are deliberate. As
English gentleman William Kensley becomes aware of the danger at
Rosenleigh Manor, he pleads for the truth of his past from the only man
he can trust—until that man is murdered.
As the secrets unfold into scandal, William’s world is tipped into
destitution, leaving him penniless and alone. His only comfort is in the
constant friendship and love of Isabella Gresham. If he does not have
their nonsense at the seashore, their laughter, their reckless
adventures, has he anything at all?
He should have known that would be ripped from him too. When a hidden
foe arises from their acquaintances and imperils Isabella’s life,
William may be the only one willing to risk his life to rescue her. But
even if he frees Isabella from her captors, will he still have to
forsake her heart?
Some sacrifice everything for love. Others
sacrifice love for everything else. In this haunting tale of rigid
social prejudices and heart-aching regrets, the greatest decision of
their life will be determined in the garden of the midnights.
