Summary: Romance set in East Anglia in 1746
Review: Pre Regency so life is not quite so elegant. Set amongst the fens of East Anglia, where life could be harsh. An interesting story with people and things not always what they seem. Lots of detail about life at the time in the fens. It uses the language which would be roughly correct for the period. Not to say it is unreadable far from it, in fact I'd give it 4 and half stars if I could.From the back of the Mills & Boon large print edition... LEGACY of LOVE A DANGEROUS UNDERTAKING MARY NICHOLS EAST ANGLIA 1746/47 Hoping to live with her great-uncle Henry Capitain, Margaret Donnington found him a reprobate and took refuge at Winterford Manor. It seemed Roland, Lord Pargeter, was in need of a wife, and he offered Margaret a marriage of convenience for one year. She thought she had strayed into a madhouse but, with little money and no chance of a job, she had to accept. Only after the marriage did Margaret learn of the family curse, and how dangerous it would he for her...
