Aria Norton

Grace Burnell is the daughter of the Earl of Stoughton and a sweet-natured young lady who will care for all creatures that cross her path. When Starlight, her beloved purebred horse is injured, there is nobody in the village to help – until the charming and willing to help apothecary appears. Her secret daydreaming of Jerome though is disrupted by her brother’s wishes for her to marry a man she cannot stand…

Is it possible for Grace to find in the apothecary her everlasting refuge of hope and fulfilment?

Jerome Murton studied long and hard to become an apothecary and takes pride in his job. When he is summoned by a local noble family, he instantly notices the stunning daughter, but tries to fight his growing interest in her. After all, he is merely the son of a schoolmaster, and she is from high society. However, when life throws them together in various instances, Jerome cannot help but admit he has irreversibly fallen for the beautiful Grace.

If only there was a way to overpower the man standing in the way of his happiness with her…

Grace cannot bear the thought of spending her life with her unpleasant betrothed, especially while her feelings for Jerome become stronger and stronger. Jerome knows that he must sacrifice everything to prove to her noble family that he is worthy. Can they escape the restrictions of society together and embrace their love? Is there a way to please everyone without betraying their connection or will they kneel to everyone else’s desires and abandon their own?
