A Good Lord

She dreamed of London society. He was never meant to become her home.

Lucinda Middleton has spent her life longing for something grander than the rolling hills of Shropshire. While her family finds purpose in faith, labor, and the quiet rhythms of Eden Manor, Lucinda dreams of glittering ballrooms, fashionable gowns, and the perfect titled gentleman who will sweep her into London society.

Instead, she finds a pirate.

Jackson Cavendish arrives at Eden Manor carrying scandal, secrets, and a reckless past he cannot outrun. Sent to the countryside by his powerful father to escape the whispers of London, Jackson expects boredom and judgment-not a fiery red-haired young woman who challenges him at every turn and makes him question the life he thought he wanted.

As summer fades into harvest, friendship deepens into longing, and the peaceful world of Eden Manor begins to transform them both.

But Lucinda still dreams of London.

And Jackson is hiding the one truth that could change everything.

When the season finally calls Lucinda away from the countryside and into the dazzling world she has always imagined, she must decide whether the life she dreamed of can ever compare to the love she found beneath the orchards of Eden Manor.

In a society built on titles, expectations, and appearances, love may demand the most dangerous thing of all-

a choice made freely.
