Daughters of the Gentry, Book #2 - Available on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited, on other audio platforms without ads, in hardcover and in paperback here: books2read.com...
She is waiting to be loved for the very first time. He is waiting to love her. But someone is dead set on making sure that never happens.
Widowed Arabella Northwick went from the home of a father who didn’t love her to the home of a husband who didn’t love her. It would seem at last she was on the cusp of forging a happier future for her baby and herself, were it not for her dead husband’s brother, who is determined to keep them captive.
Theo Dawson was born and bred into the textile industry. He has never wished to inherit the mill and run it, but as the eldest son, no other choice presents itself. He might be able to resign himself to a life of duty rather than happiness were it not for the beautiful, widowed Mrs. Northwick, who is coming to mean every bit as much to him as fulfilling his duties.
With a wicked brother-in-law keeping a tight rein on Arabella and swearing she will lose her son if she marries, and problems at the mill that prevent Theo from any hope of passing it on to his younger brother, the two hopeless lovers have arrived at point non plus. What they will need to overcome-their only chance, in fact-is a stroke of good fortune.
* Trigger warning. This is a chaste, traditional Regency romance. That said, the villain is narcissistic and psychologically abusive in parts of the book. If this will be an uncomfortable story for you to read, I hope you will try another one of my books. I always want my readers to enjoy their time spent reading my books.

To date this is by far the BEST book in this genre. I can’t go back to the trivia of balls and gowns. This book could be a biography, maybe that is what I will explore next. You make a fine pair. Thank you.

You might like A Daring Proposal for the Battle of Waterloo - it's more serious than most of my books (and close to my heart). It's still a romance (and it's the third in the Memorable Proposal series). And if you've not yet read Philippa Holds Court that has a slightly deeper tone with what Jack is attempting in Parliament (amidst the balls and gowns). :-) It's the second in the Clavering Chronicles series.

In Great Britain, marriages between a woman and her husband's brother were forbidden from 1560 to 1907. So the brother-in law could not make such a proposal to the heroine.
@JennieGoutet
@JennieGoutet 8 месяцев назад
It happened but the marriage could be easily voided so it was a risk for those attempting it. A man who had some power of wealth and persuasion could find a way. www.regencyresearcher.com/pages/marriage.html Marriages could be annulled if a man or woman married within the prohibited degrees of consanguinity or affinity. These marriages weren’t illegal altogether but could be easily voided. A clergyman had the privilege of refusing to conduct the ceremony in which a man was marrying his deceased wife’s sister or a widow her husband’s brother.

Unless I'm wrong, my understanding is that she's only 19-20, which would explain why he keeps her under his thumb and regards her as a child, although that would be very annoying. Sure glad i did not live in those times bc I never had the mommy urge, never had kids, too independent to marry, probably would have been shoved to the fringes of society. Likely would move to the New World to make my own way

Most women married that young. But he kept her under his thumb because he was a jerk. But yes, life would not have been easy for any strong-minded woman in those days.

Ms Goutet, I do believe you should be aware that it was against the law for a Brother In Law to marry his brothers widow. That law did not change until the middle of the 1900s like 1960s.
@JennieGoutet
@JennieGoutet Год назад
Rachel Knowles from Regency History .net clarifies this better than I could. During the Regency period, the marriage between a widower and his wife’s sister, or between a widow and her husband’s brother, was valid but voidable. It was forbidden under ecclesiastical law but not illegal until the passing of the Marriage Act in 1835. It could be voided or annulled if successfully challenged by any interested party, at any time during the marriage, provided both husband and wife were still alive.
@shahmanz
@shahmanz Год назад
The brother in law knows this, he even acknowledges that its a marriage that could be challenged in court. But he does say something like who's to tell the authorities if you keep quiet... I think it was a strange law, makes no sense to me. What God Permits how can man prohibit?

Unfortunately, did not like this story, both hero and heroine were weaklings, especially the heroine, so naive and meek and a martyr. Honoria and Philip in the first book were so much better. Supporting characters brought much life to an otherwise bleak and depressing story. Stopped so many times but decided to persevere to the end per someone’s comment that it gets better. Writing is great, since it was able to evoke strong emotions, and will continue to read the other books.
