A Durable Fire — Francesca Brooks
WHEN A LADY'S FIRST LOVE IS LORD BYRON, HOW CAN ANY OTHER GENTLEMAN COMPETE?
Antonia Marlowe had a most romantic and accursed fate placed upon her at the tender age of sixteen: she fell in love with the poet Lord Byron. He offered for her hand but was refused by her stern father. In an equally dramatic gesture, Tony vowed never to marry. And nearly ten years later, she remained true to her notorious rebel.
Lord Lydford quite understood how Byron had been swept away. Tony Marlowe's beauty and vitality drew him like a moth to a flame. But unbeknownst to Lydford, her ardent nature was channeled into intellectual rather than sensual pursuits. Which left him with the challenge of turning Miss Marlowe's enthusiasm for verse and poetry toward himself, a jaded libertine who had a lot to learn about love...
