After the death of her father, an esteemed doctor, Lavender Philips is left without money or social respect. When her friend, Melora, informs her of a work opportunity at the estate of a nobleman, Lavender sees this as a chance to finally move forward. She might be hired as a simple servant, but her father's legacy of medical knowledge is still within her. Therefore, when the Marquess needs her, she is willing to offer her help and ends up nursing his broken heart too... As their special connection starts growing, Lavender realises he might be her one true soulmate. With her heart beating faster whenever they are together, could this be the beginning of a powerful love?
The Marquess Ronan Beckman has found himself injured in the midst of a robbery. He is therefore in desperate need of a maid who can offer medical support as well. When he meets the charming Miss Philips, he sees that there is something so unique about her, that it makes him abandon his usual arrogance and selfishness. However, when Lady Foster, a woman that had always been after Ronan's title, sees that he is recovering, she places herself back in his life. Unfortunately, Lady Foster also soon realises that Lavender is somewhat of a threat to the future she wants for herself and Ronan. Will Ronan manage to make the right choice and realise that Lavender is everything he's been looking for his entire life?
As Ronan and Lavender grow significantly closer, it is Lady Foster who continues to come between them. As if this wasn't enough, when a sudden illness strikes, they must decide just how much they trust and love each other. Determined to win this battle, they will fiercely fight for their love until the end. Will the power of their feelings manage to conquer the threat of death and romantic antagonists? Or will the wounds of the past tear their blooming love apart?
This is another amazing story, with a plot that keeps you enthralled from start to finish. The plot has just the right amount of mystery, and emotional twists and turns. The characters are wonderfully crafted, with the strength to overcome their villain and obstacles. The extended epilogue is used for great effect to bring their story's to completion. This is a great book that would be suitable for all those who love clean historical romances that have a bit of suspense. I read an ARC copy.

His coachman started to fight them and he got out of the carriage to assist him and things went from bad to worse, as the Highwayman were leaving they toppled the carriage over on to Ronan breaking both of his legs. He was a bear to get along with because of his legs and his mother started looking for someone to dedicate themselves to looking after him. And they hired Lavender Philips as his dedicated nurse until he no longer needed her. Abigail Agar has written a delightful book with the happily ever after ending. The book is well-written and extremely readable and has a few missteps in it that get straightened out and we get a beautiful ending...
Will Lady Foster win? Ms. Agar is one of those authors I watch out for I love her writing and I enjoy reading her work. In this tale Lavender Philips's father has passed but left no money and because he was a doctor no real social standing and she is in a bad place. When a job offer comes her way to goes to work for Marquess Ronan Beckman little did she know that she just may have found her soulmate. This is a charming tale about a wonderful character who is such a giving person and a man who needs to open his eyes to the truth before him. It is a really good story and I enjoyed the time I spent reading it. I highly recommend this one.

The man she is employed for has both emotional and physical problems. She helps him heal them both as their feelings for each other grow. But in comes another person to cause a lot of problems.

I chose to read and review this book. I am a fan of the author and love her work a lot. This one was well written as usual with an amazing plot and characters. It has a great storyline. I liked how the characters meet and interact together as well as with the other characters.It is a suspenseful action emotional book with so much more that got me hooked from the start. I recommend it big time you will it
This isn't my usual genre to read, but I took a chance on it, and I really enjoyed it. The plot was done with good vibes, without seeming to be fake. Sometimes these plots are not done very well and you just knew how it was going to play out. This storyline had a twist that was surprising. Very well written.
Tedious.Needs another edit. Many scenes are repeated sometimes the characters repeated words verbatim. A disappointing read.
Tedious. Needs another edit. Many scenes are repeated sometimes the characters repeat words verbatim. Not enough challenges for the characters. A disappointing read.
To have a job where you can use your skills that your father taught her. To find a very bitter man that needed healing to help him to become a better man. To have a lady who was jealous of the maid try to ruin her life by setting her up so she would have her out of the way. But to have it all come crashing down around her. To have a happy ending.
I think that the characters were very well developed. True to life where the affluent think they are more privileged than the working class. I enjoyed how all of the plot and the plans came together for that happier ever after. I recommend this book and this author for those who are looking for a great read.
The male character was wish washy, easily persuaded against the lead female and not a well developed character. The female was weak in character and was written to have no self worth. Story line was boring and too much ruminating from the characters that was annoying.
Interesting book about how a carriage accident can change not only your physical life but your outlook on life. And how to view the change of how the heart can see the Lady you previously look at as maybe your wife. Interesting book!
I really enjoyed reading this book! The guy broke both legs to begin the book and then the girl was hired to take care of him! Down the line of course they start caring for each other. I recommend this book to anyone who likes romance!
What a great story! Lavender was a strong and kind with integrity. Her honesty and integrity were questioned several times. She overcame all of the hardships in her life and love won out.
I liked the story which was sweet of course you get your usual misunderstandings between the two leads but it feels nice and comfortable like wearing a cozy jumper on a cold day
Lavender struggled to survive after the death of her father. Then, one day, she was given the position of aiding the Marques as he recovered from a horrible accident. The experience led her to love and so much more. Read to see how ot all works out.
Ronan and Lavender. Not very likely, but a good yarn! It would be nice to believe it could happen like that for people from such different clssses, but unlikely!
Very sweet and intriguing, but forewarning - there is NO SEX in this novel. Those of you looking for a bodice ripper romance, this is NOT the book for you! 😜
Loved the story. How physical imperfections can remove some of society's stringent rules, allowing for flexible thinking. With loyal supporters anything is possible.
