The Ghost and Sarah Tomlinson

The Ghost and Romance #2

by Jeanne Savery

Blush: This is a sweet romance (kisses only, no sexual content). A stand-alone sequel to The Ghost and Jacob Moorhead. There are conditions attached to the late Lord Tomlinson’s bequests. After the death of her fiancé, Sarah Tomlinson has no plans to marry, so she resents the condition forcing her to return to society. Worse, the first person she meets in Brighton is the man she should have wed. Terrance, Lord Repton, is evading the newest candidate for his bride that his aunt has thrown at his head. Discovering his Sarah is not dead as he’d believed, he is more determined then ever he’ll not succumb to a marriage of convenience. To complicate things, the heir to the ghost’s title firmly believes Sarah’s little house should be his. If that were not enough, two unacceptable men decide for different reasons that Sarah will do very well as their bride. Sarah wants desperately to turn to Terrance for help, but dares not—lest her true reason for refusing to marry is revealed.

About the author

Jeanne Savery has lived and travelled in Great Britain with her spouse, an American Professor of British Politics. An American herself, she is descended from the English (via her father) and the Scots (via her mother).

She first read the Regency Romances of Georgette Heyer while living in Sidcup, Kent. She reread them while living in Whitstable, Kent. The dialogue was charming, but the detail was forbidding: No mistakes! That's the watchword.

For library research, she amassed (and read) a library of diaries, letters, memoirs, yearbooks, etc., from the era. For field research, she (and her spouse) repeatedly crisscrossed the island of Great Britain. Their two daughters fondly recall a family jaunt (with bed and breakfast) in August, 1973: London to Pembroke to Chester to Carlisle to Stirling to Edinburgh to Hawick ... to London.

She published her first Regency Romance in 1991. Since then, she has published more numerous novels and novellas.

She has received the Reader's Choice Award and been awarded the Holt Medallion. She is a member of Novelists, Inc. and Romance Writers of America.
