Emily & Edwin, the Yorkshire Series, Book One.

Emily Ashworth, the daughter of the wealthy Lord Ashworth, lives a comfortable and contented life. In May 1819, her meddling Aunt bestows an invite to take both Emily and her young, beautiful sister to Scarborough for the summer season. Head strong, determined and independent, Emily embarks on an adventure of theft, deceit, murder and all the possibilities of a new love. Edwin Tillingworth has the makings of a scoundrel and the looks to match. His care free, charismatic and kind hearted nature contrast vividly with his dashingly dark good looks. With an aversion to romance the summer leads him to Emily and he fights inner turmoil at the prospects of what the acquaintance may lead to. Has Edwin found his match in the understated Emily? Edwin finds himself in a complicated web of smuggling, disguise and law breaking. Nobody ever said love was easy, but they certainly never said it would be this challenging. Will love win out in this tale of romance between two young lovers in the early 19th Century?
