After killing her husband in self-defense, Thomasina Waxton flees her home, takes the name of Ellen Scarlet, and builds a new life for herself on the London stage. Original.
I read this book like 100 years ago and I still love it. I can still remember it so vividly. One of my favorite historical romances without a doubt! Read it! =)
This is an excellent book! The characters are well developed and engaging. It is amazing all that Ellen has endured. Richard rescues her from an evil man. Richard is so kind and giving even though he has suffered unspeakable things. Gavin sees Ellen and instantly wants her. Has to have her, but Ellen has to keep her past a secret. I didn't want to put this book down, at times it was very intense or had me laughing out loud.
