The reality was—her Baron was no prince Cassy's grandfather indulged in two expensive pastimes—playing "lord cT,: Manor" and betting the ponies. Both pleasures overreached his means to support them, and now the crunch had come—eviction from his Somerset estate. And although Cassy hadn't the heart to allow this, she certainly hadn't the funds to prevent it. Only one person had the power and the wealth to do that—her "no love lost" neighbor and landlord, Sir James Clayton. However, the maxim "There's no harm in asking" backfired.

I'm a Londoner, though now I live in Devon, a twenty-minute walk from the sea. I love nothing more than walking my lunatic Border Terrier on the beach in the rain (well, OK, I don't object to the sun, but when it's raining we usually have the whole beach to ourselves.) Back in the day, I had twenty-five romance novels published by Mills&Boon. Now, after a long gap, I am braving the independent route. I have several M&B-type novels in the pipeline, but also aim to try a few different things.
