Bernadette Baxter, the youngest of the four Baxter sisters, is known throughout Hatfield for her herbal remedies, quick wit, and compassionate heart. Whether crafting lozenges, setting broken bones, or delivering herbal teas, Bernadette has earned the trust and reliance of the townspeople. But when a new doctor arrives, her place in the community is suddenly under threat. Dr. Glynn Williams has seen his share of battlefield injuries and is determined to bring modern medicine to Hatfield. But his arrival is met with resistance from Bernadette, whose strong will and herbal expertise challenges everything he believes about healing. Their rivalry sparks plenty of tension, and more than a little attraction, as they clash over patients, practices, and the stubborn belief that they know best. As Bernadette and Glynn are forced to work together, their animosity begins to soften into admiration. But with Napoleon’s escape from Elba casting a shadow over England and Bernadette’s father still missing in France, both face challenges that threaten to drive them apart. Can Bernadette and Glynn find common ground - and love - before duty and danger tear them away from each other? Step into the charming world of Regency England in this witty, heartwarming series about family, love, and the courage it takes to follow your heart. The Bookshop Belles is a series of sweet historical romances which do not feature on-page sexual content.
Authors

I've been writing since I was 5 years old. I've always had to set it aside and try to concentrate on so-called 'real life' though. I've had a number of interesting careers - engineer, real estate sales agent, owner of an electrical goods store, silversmith - but finally the time has come for me to return to my first love. Writing. I've always loved the works of Jane Austen, so perhaps it's fitting that my first published work should be a variation on the much beloved Pride And Prejudice. Visit my website, www.catherinebilson.com, to read several free short fics in the Pride and Prejudice fandom, and to leave me comments on my work! I also write not-for-profit fanfiction set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and if you'd like to read those free works please go to the Archive Of Our Own and search for the user handle ozhawk.
