Beloved — Mary Lancaster

The mystery of the duel reaches its thrilling resolution.

Torn by conflicting loyalties, Olivia is driven by her conscience to warn the new Duke of Cuttyngham of a threat she does not wish to believe in. But Victor, the young duke, is very far from the ineffectual cripple she expects.

He may be moody, suspicious, and downright rude, but he is also formidably clever, determined and breathtakingly handsome. Perhaps it's inevitable, when the dangerous accidents begin, that he should win her loyalty against the scheming father she barely knows. But she never meant to fall so irrevocably in love.

Victor, spreading his wings in a rapidly burgeoning world, dares to reach for happiness. Together, he and Olivia travel to Brussels to reveal the true killer of the late duke. Catching such a wily enemy, however, is not easy, especially not when war breaks into their plans and leaves Victor defenceless… Or is he?

While the Battle of Waterloo rages only a few miles from the town, will Victor and Olivia find love is strong enough to win their own struggle?

Join them and returning friends from the other books in the series for this satisfying and utterly romantic finale!
