Darkest Summer

Book three in the ongoing Darkest Saga... Hermione's story Hermione, pregnant and unwed in Victorian times, watched her friends be happily married to their powerful husbands. Due to the belief she was a widow, she still ran in the highest circles of the ton, but she wanted more. Wanted the love she'd thought she'd had with the Marquess before he showed his true colors. Resigned to helping her parents on their estates or living with her brother and Sarah, she wasn't ready when she met the Scottish lord. Definitely did not expect him to pursue her and keep promises, not after everything she'd been through. And how could he stay when he found out the danger she and her friends were in?

Lord Thomas needed a wife. Had gone to Edinburgh with just that in mind. However, he wasn't prepared for the English miss he found...a pregnant English miss with connections to the Dark Duke. He hated the big city, but now, in order to pursue the first woman to interest him as wife material, he'd have to go to London and convince her parents that he'd be good enough for her and their grandchild. The more he learned about his brave intended, the more he wanted her, wanted to protect her.

A dead bishop, revolution, and a tricked marquess have them all on the brink of death. The obstacles to love and marriage had Hermione and her friends fighting for their lives and for love.
