T
he Earl of Salt Hendon and squire’s daughter Jane Despard share a secret past of misunderstanding and heartache. When the Earl is forced to marry Jane, society is aghast. None more so than the conniving and delusional Diana St. John. Hopes dashed at marrying the Earl herself, she will go to extreme lengths, even murder, to destroy the newlyweds’ second chance for a happily ever after.
The intricate web that Lucinda Brant constructed with a most amazing cast of characters is sure to keep you mesmerized. As the plot develops and darkens to a place where you can’t help but start to squirm you realize the imagery is spectacular. If you have never met true evil just wait till you meet Diana St. John’s. Definitely made me a Brant fan. Enjoy.

A love story fans of historical romance will relish. The rakish and raucous character of the period is contrasted superbly with the sophistication of the age.

Brant’s talent is undeniable and dare I admit… I enjoyed Salt Bride more than many of Georgette Heyer’s own beloved works and that is high praise indeed. ★★★★★ Courtney Webb, Stiletto Storytime
