“Exquisitely written and brimming with emotion.”
—Julia Quinn
“Adele Ashworth is certain to become one of romance’s most beloved writers.”
—Lisa Kleypas
Adele Ashworth’s Winter Garden is a stunning historical romance classic reborn. The story of a beautiful French woman, a spy for the British government, partnered with a breathtaking, intensely passionate man of mystery on perilous assignment in the south of England, Winter Garden is an early gem from RITA® Award winner Ashworth. A wonderfully creative love story filled with unforgettable characters and brimming with palpable sexual tension, Winter Garden is the romantic destination where true romance lovers—especially Ashworth’s many fans and admirers of the novels of Cathy Maxwell, Christina Dodd, and Lisa Kleypas—are going to want to spend quality time.
A celebrated beauty, Madeleine DuMais's
cleverness is her greatest asset—one she puts
to good use as a spy for the British. Assigned
to help break up a smuggling ring in the
south of England, she arrives at the quaint
resort town of Winter Garden and meets her
partner in subterfuge: Thomas Blackwood.
Unlike any man she has ever met, Blackwood's
quiet confidence and mysterious intensity
send shivers of pleasure coursing through her.
And, despite the danger, as duty gives
way to desire, Madeleine aches for
Thomas's gentle touch on her body . . .
on her heart . . . on her soul.
For surrender holds its own sweet reward . . .
