A Woman's Estate — Roberta Gellis

SHE WAS A RAVISHING FIREBRAND, TORN BY PASSION AND POLITICS, LOYALTY AND LOVE.

ABIGAIL LYDDEN--A Yankee rebel on England's shores, she was a countess determined to reclaim her dead husband's estate, a headstrong beauty who'd tasted freedom and vowed never to be bound again...

SIR ARTHUR ST. EYRE--Politics was his passion...until Abigail ignited his body and soul, challenging his honor, driving him to dangerous extremes...

They played destiny's game with a reckless abandon that carried them from lavish country seats to staid London drawing rooms, from secret Scottish retreats to the corridors of power at Ghent. Even as England battled Napoleon in the East and fanned rebellion in America to the West, they mixed intrigue and desire in an explosive brew of divided, loyalties and tumultuous love.
