Alice, The Fire He Ignites

An Ambitious Heroine & Powerful Earl Regency Romance (The Defiant Ladies of London Book 1)

By: Kerri Kastle

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

I set out to secure a fortune… but he set my heart ablaze.

The fire that destroyed my father’s mill took everything—his life, my future, and my place in the world. With investors withdrawing and time running out, I enter the London Season with one goal: secure a husband powerful enough to help me rebuild.

Love is not part of the plan.

Then I meet William Henderson, Earl of Arlington.

He is controlled, commanding, and far too perceptive. He challenges my resolve, questions my ambition, and sees straight through the careful composure I wear like armor.

A practical alliance should have been simple.
Instead, every look from him unsettles me. Every conversation sparks something dangerous.

Because wanting him threatens everything I’m trying to save.

If I choose passion, I lose my future.
If I choose security, I may lose myself.

And the man who could restore everything I lost may be the one fire I cannot afford to touch.

Great Book Series

This is the first of the 7 Book series of the Defiant Ladies of London. I enjoyed this first book and am sure that I will enjoy the other six books.
