He holds her life in his hands, but that doesn’t mean she trusts him.

As the youngest son of a duke, Edward Wentworth is neither the heir nor the spare, leaving him feeling restless and uncertain. He decides to forge his own path by embarking on a journey to the newly formed United States that will change his life forever. But when he stumbles upon a beautiful Irish woman being sold into indenture, he knows that he cannot turn a blind eye to her plight.

Where Anna Walsh once had family, pride, safety, and love, she is now only left with an insurmountable debt and a bleak future as a loathsome Englishman's mistress. There is only one chance at escape—indentured servitude. But when a handsome man pays the large sum and then offers her freedom, she cannot help but be suspicious of his motives.

As Anna and Edward navigate their way through the challenges of their journey, will they be able to set aside their biases and allow their love to flourish? Or will their past beliefs keep them from finding true happiness?

This is a mistaken identity, boss/employee one pepper historical romance. It is the prequel novella in the Mistaken Identity Series.

Great novella

This was such a fun novella. I love the ship setting and loved the Greek mythology in it. Loved the characters and slow burn romance. Such a fun story.

Great story!

This is my voluntary review of a free copy I got through a Sweet & Swoony Romance promo.The settings were few so the bulk of the story is told in dialogue and interaction. I love learning about characters based on their actions and reactions instead of direct descriptions.In spite of her current circumstances, Anna is a lady. She behaves as such so that even her filthy clothes can't disprove it. Yeah, Edward plays the hero, but it's some delusion. He's a nice guy and sometimes acts without thinking things through.His valet starts as a horrible snob, but really cares about Edward.

To Be Sure

To be sure, I never want to read that expression again. It was on nearly every page. WHY?!?! I found it annoying after I had seen it for the 10th time, and it must have been in the book close to 1,000 times.Otherwise it was a decent story, if a little rushed. I would have liked to have seen more time in America and less on the boat. But I thought (spoiler alert)it was good that at least the property in PA was real. I wondered if that would turn out to be a scam.

Kisses only pre Regency Era novella

This is a prequel to the Unlikely Match series. It is a kisses only pre-regency era romance.I've owned this ebook forever it seems and have wanted to read it. A few months ago I discovered the first in the series available on audio via my Hoopla. I listened to and loved that. Recently I discovered this prequel novella also available to listen to.I had a few hours and thought I'd sneak this one in before the end of 2025. I liked getting the Duke's (from book 1) parents' story since it is referenced in that book.This was a quick and charming listen. Most of the book takes place on a ship. That was different.The book is read by one female narrator and I enjoyed listening to her.
