A widow determined to start over. A marquess determined to win her trust. A killer determined to keep his secrets.
Louise Dennison Newbury has survived a year of wearing mourning black for a man who never deserved her loyalty. Now, she’s across the Atlantic writing articles about London's glittering Season for a fashionable American magazine.
She doesn’t expect to fall in love with the work or to become the confidante of a young aristocrat navigating her debut. And she certainly doesn’t expect Gareth Mercer, the Marquess of Hartmoor, to keep appearing in every corner of her new London life with his knowing gray eyes and unyielding patience.
But when Louise witnesses a blackmail exchange in a dressmaker's back alley and a young seamstress turns up dead, the Season's glitter turns dark. With a murderer possibly aware of what she saw, Louise must trust someone. And the man she trusts most is the one quietly dismantling every wall she built.
Just in Time is perfect for fans of:
✓ American heroine, British nobleman
✓ He falls first
''' Love after loss
✓ Slow-burn romance
✓ Reluctant heroine
✓ Mystery
✓ Faith-filled historical Gilded Age and Victorian romance
Genre: Romance
