Her Secret Benefactor — Susan Leona Fisher

Lady Elizabeth Allgreave is a cool customer, proud of her independence and determined to prove she can manage Trentmere House and its surrounding estate. But, following her grandmother's death, she becomes aware of the full extent of the estate's neglect and sorry financial state. She must seek help or lose it. When the odious Sir Geoffrey Griseley reappears in her life, threatening to take it all away, she has little choice but to accept the services of the mysterious stranger who comes calling. Christopher Blake, not for the first time, is running for his life. He takes refuge in a strangely familiar place. Is his memory playing tricks? Then he sees her, all grown up now. She clearly doesn't remember him, which on reflection he considers fortuitous. When circumstances throw her yet again in his path, he decides to take action.
