Publisher's summary

On the cliffs of 19th-century Cornwall, a spirited, impetuous young woman is torn between the honor of her family and the longing of her heart.

England, 1811.

A tarnished reputation. A distant home. A forced engagement to a dangerous man. When Elizabeth Trelawny flees London, she has more than one reason to run. And when her carriage, pursued by her would-be fiancé, is caught in a storm, she quickly accepts the help of a dark stranger. Anything to get back to Cornwall.

But Rowan Curnow is not exactly a stranger. He’s not quite a gentleman either. Class disparity once kept him from courting Elizabeth...even if it didn’t keep him from kissing her.

The couple elude their pursuers and reach Bastion Point, Elizabeth’s future inheritance and the one place she calls home. But in the very act of spiriting her to safety, Rowan has jeopardized Elizabeth’s inheritance - if her grandfather ever learns she spent the night, however innocently, in the company of a man.

Then smugglers unite the pair in a reckless, flirtatious alliance - an alliance that both challenges the social norms Elizabeth has been raised to revere and rattles Rowan’s fledgling faith in God. Elizabeth must choose between the obedience of a child and the desires of a woman: cling to the safety of her home or follow the man she loves.

Regency romance set in Cornwall with inspirational elements

Book 1 of the Cliffs of Cornwall series; can also be enjoyed as a stand-alone

Would recommend the narrator look up pronunciations

I can count half a dozen words this narrator mispronounced: fête, eschew, and some others that weren’t even recognizable. I hope they didn’t pay her very much as it was very distracting. Normally I like books by this author but this one isn’t up to her usual standards in the area of character development. The heroine was adventurous but not terribly interesting or even kind. And I get that it’s because she’s not given her life over to the Lord yet, but after she does it’s almost unreal the change in how she treats her cousin: No internal dialogue indicating remorse for her prior treatment. Anyway, it was good enough to not ask for a refund.

A story where inheritance, love, and murder are at the forefront

Lady Elizabeth has a line of suitors, most are interested in her dowry or title, but one lowly secretary loves her unconditionally. Elizabeth is bent on inheriting Bastion manor at the cost of true love. She must learn the hard way what truly matters in life amidst danger and intrigue. The story would interest readers interested in mystery with a touch of romance and forbidden love.

not great

Purchased this audio because it had good reviews and has Christian overtones. My thoughts aren't great. The story line is ok. My problem is that only one character is worth caring about. I'm serious. Rowan is the only character in the book I liked. Elizabeth is deplorable. Even the Christian grandfather isn't great. The cousin was awful. Several times I wanted to give up on this. I persevered and it did have a good ending. But just. Read at your own risk.
