Until his house and his hangover are invaded by the genteel but poverty-stricken James family and their terrifying dog.

Linnet James’s chief concern is to make her mother well again. Between that, money worries and caring for her young siblings, she has no time and less inclination to consider marriage. Until she encounters Wolfe. Their meeting is the start of an adventures involving highwaymen, poets, pawnbrokers and thin ice—and sudden, unexpected love.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


Miss Linnet James is in Blackwater with her family so that her mother can take the healing waters.  They are struggling somewhat in what was known as genteel poverty.  With her father dead and her mother ill,  it's up to her to look after them all. 
Captain John/Jack Wolfe has returned from war to find life as a civilian boring.  So he has upset his father by his wastrel ways.  His father's reaction was to cut his money off.  Now he has no choice but to sort himself out. 
This is a sweet romance with great characters,  humour and a little bit of danger from a strange source.  Our hero does justice to his exalted family line.
I love the "Blackhaven" books and this fits in nicely. 
Good fun.

Mary Lancaster's first love was historical fiction. Since then she has grown to love coffee, chocolate, red wine and black and white films - simultaneously where possible. She hates housework.

As a direct consequence of the first love, she studied history at St. Andrews University, after which she worked variously as editorial assistant, researcher and librarian. Although she has always written stories for her own entertainment, she began to make serious efforts toward publication in order to distract herself from a job she disliked. She now writes full time at her seaside home in Scotland, which she shares with her husband and three children.
