Most women would think it flattering to be the object of attention of more than one titled gentlemen. Not artist Agnes Bradford. One pursuer seeks to control her, to publicly ruin her if she refuses to submit. The other one is more difficult to resist and with him, its necessary to deceive. Recently found missing heir, Maxime Blayne, Lord Loverton, travels to England to take up his title. Or so everyone thinks. His true purpose is to find the murderer of his parents. Then he meets fragile, heartbroken Agnes and that changes everything.
Author

Julia Donner (aka M.L.Rigdon) grew up in historic Galena, IL, USA, and spent most of her time in the museum of her aunt, who encouraged her interest in history and understood the need to cherish a dream. She started writing in secret in her teens and never stopped, merging it with her mother's encouragement to study theater and music, which led to performing in the Midwest, California and as far away as Austria. Donner never forgot what it was like to write alone as a girl and is a happy member of Summit City Scribes. Concern for the failing educational system led her to develop Your Futures in Ink, a panel of local and regional authors, who go into to schools to encourage students and answer questions about writing. THE TIGRESSE AND THE RAVEN, first book in the regency Friendship Series, is an RWA contest finalist. The ninth book in the series, A ROGUE FOR MISS PRIM and the tenth, AN AMERICAN FOR AGNES, are available now. A LAIRD’S PROMISE will be released by Spring 2018.
