An Unwelcome Distraction by Robyn Mearsley
Sparks fly when Lady Frances Garraway and Alexander ‘Sandy’ McBride first meet.
She is the top-lofty daughter of the Earl of Acksmore, and he is the site engineer overseeing construction of the Becksleigh canal.
Poles apart, they are unwittingly thrown into close contact by force of circumstances which they both resent.
Wishing only to be left alone to get on with their lives, they are both overtaken by change, conflict and drama brought on by the impending completion of the Becksleigh canal. Together they must overcome the unexpected trials that come their way.
A sparkling and humourous traditional Regency romance.
