Roxton Family Saga Book 5: Henri-Antoine and Lisa's Happily Ever After
A standalone romantic adventure set against the backdrop of Treat, ancestral home of the dukes of Roxton. Satyr's Son will delight fans of the series with cameos by many beloved characters, while new readers will discover the myriad pleasures and glittering aristocratic world of the Roxton family through the fresh eyes of newcomer Lisa Crisp. Satyr's Son is a Cinderella story with a heartwarming Happily Ever After.
London, 1786. Lord Henri-Antoine has returned from the Grand Tour to a life of privilege and excess. A vast inheritance allows him every indulgence, free from responsibility. Yet, Henri-Antoine maintains a well-ordered existence, going to great lengths to conceal an affliction few understand and many fear.
Miss Lisa Crisp is a penniless orphan who relies on the charity of relatives to keep her from the poorhouse. Intelligent and unflappable, Lisa will not allow poverty to define her. She leads a useful life working among the sick poor.
Under startling circumstances, Henri-Antoine and Lisa meet. There is instant attraction. When they find themselves attending the same wedding in the country, Henri-Antoine offers Lisa a scandalous proposition, one she should refuse but yearns to accept. Following her heart could ruin them both.
A must-read for fans who enjoy it when a rake is brought to his knees. A heady tale full of laughs, uniquely touching moments, and an amazing plot that will keep you on edge right to the end. I loved the Roxton family so much I'll be going back to read the previous books that I missed. This book totally engaged me at an emotional level. For those looking for an intellectual read where you actually learn something integral to human nature, this book is for you. -- Maureen Dangarembizi, 5 STARS Readers' Favorite
Just when you couldn't imagine Lucinda Brant upstaging her previous, wondrous tales that star the Roxton family and friends, out comes Satyr's Son, one of the best Cinderella stories ever. All books in this series easily stand alone but for those fortunate to read all the Roxton tales it will be like a homecoming of sorts. Reading and reviewing Satyr's Son was an absolute joy. Any fan of historical romance just has to read this book. Totally addictive and marvelous. -- SWurman, 5 STAR REVIEWER TOP PICK Night Owl Reviews
