Produktbeschreibung
A HERO'S HEART is a Regency romance set in 1815 London and Robin Hood's Bay, a Yorkshire town rife with smugglers. Tricia Ravenscar, a virtuous young lady in dire distress, boldly decides to escape from her uncle, the despotic Lord Kilver, so she disguises herself as a boy and flees across the moor. The Duke of Rowan rescues what he thinks is a lad, and kindly takes Tricia to London and makes her his page. When he discovers that she is a young lady in great danger from Kilver, he determines to save her from a life of misery. Tricia falls in love with her considerate Duke, and discovers that he has hazards of his own. To help him, she enacts clever hi-jinks, trying to rid him of two wicked society women who scheme to get their hooks into him. Striving together, the Duke and Tricia fight to save each other from the enemies who tightly grip them. Can their love ever triumph over the villainous plots pitched against them? This book is a clean, adventurous novel with humor and lightheartedness woven through the perilous romance. I wrote it because strong heroes who demonstrate their moral integrity give us good role models to love.
Autorenporträt
Mellyora Ashley enjoyed her job as an executive secretary, but as a few years passed, she longed to write her romantic novel. Her husband urged her to stay at home, raise their sons, and write. Her first book, A LADY IN DISGUISE, was published by Zebra Kensington in New York. Besides writing books, she is a playwright, director, and an award-winning costume designer for theater and opera. She was the editor of a monthly Christian publication, and taught a college class called "Write to Delight." Mellyora enjoys traveling abroad, where she thrills to see the realism of her book research. Visiting and exploring with her friends in many countries, she finds inspiration and stunning locations for her Regency and historical novels.
