Valentine March has been forced to find employment after her father’s death. As a lady’s companion required to dress in drab clothes, she accompanies her employer to a notorious house party. She has no intention of encountering any of the eligible bachelors there, so she’s surprised when a gentleman finds her alone in the quiet place she’s managed to escape to, and converses with her.
Tristan Sinclair, Viscount St. Ashton, has never had any interest in a long-term relationship with the ladies who’ve come and gone in his life. Although somewhat reformed from his younger days, he is skeptical of marriage and reluctant to settle down. But when he encounters Valentine, something stirs within him.
One moment of indiscretion changes everything, and now they must consider how they will handle their newfound relationship. Can Tristan show her that he’s not the scoundrel she thinks he is? And will Valentine allow him to be a part of her life, knowing she has secrets of her own that may come to light?
The Viscount and the Vicar’s Daughter is a delightfully clean romance. As both parties face their pasts, they attempt to trust and allow each other into their lives. I enjoyed seeing these two interesting characters grow in their relationship together. Highly recommended!
