Fall in love with this captivating Georgian romance! Perfect for fans of Georgette Heyer, Mary Balogh, Jane Aiken Hodge and Jane Austen.

Will Timothia and Leo ever discover their true feelings…?

1796, England

After losing her father, Timothia Dulverton has settled down in a small residence on his estate. Fiercely independent but with limited means, she spends her days horse riding and managing her household.

Her quiet existence is thrown into turmoil when her cousin and lifelong friend, Leo Wetheral, proposes marriage. Knowing of her talent for estate management, Leo believes that the match will be mutually advantageous.

However, Timothia takes his passionless proposal as an insult to their close friendship. Furious, she turns down Leo’s offer and threatens to sever their bond altogether.

But when providence throws the seething pair into close proximity once more, Timothia and Leo find that they must put their differences aside. And as their easy intimacy starts to return, both begin to question what really lies in their hearts…

AN ARDENT FRIENDSHIP is an absorbing Georgian historical romance with an intelligent and spirited heroine.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Elizabeth Bailey grew up in Africa with unconventional parents, where she loved reading and drama. On returning to England, she developed her career in acting, theatre directing and finally writing.

Elizabeth's latest venture is The Lady Fan Mystery series, published by Sapere Books. The novels feature amateur sleuth Lady Ottilia Fanshawe and a cast of family members including her husband and champion Lord Francis Fanshawe. She originally published Regency romances with Harlequin Mills & Boon and has many titles in her Brides by Chance Regency Adventures series, now also published by Sapere, as well as standalone Regency and Georgian romances.

Elizabeth also writes edgy women's fiction: Her dual time novel Fly The Wild Echoes, which deals with past lives, and For One More Tomorrow, where the ghost of the real Macbeth returns, protesting his villainous portrayal by Shakespeare. And she has published a romantic suspense novella, Silence of a Stranger.

Elizabeth lives in Sussex, England. She is still an inveterate reader with eclectic tastes and she spends her spare time helping other writers improve their craft.

Sweet story but it seemed like a novella that was reaching to be a novel but didn't have enough content so the herione kept on being stubborn in order to make the story longer.
