Demanding a kiss from a masked highwayman was not something that modest bookworm Hannah Clayton would have normally done. But the summer of 1813 would prove to be far from normal.
Once Hannah felt her gown grow wet with her own blood, a kiss suddenly seemed a very important thing to insist upon. The masked man had turned on his rogue partner in an attempt to free her. She'd felt grateful for that, even if she thought his efforts were in vain. She did not want to die without having been kissed. What would have been the point of all those hours pouring over romance novels if that ended up being the case?
But, when she somehow survived the robbery-turned-kidnapping, she had been left with more pressing concerns. Her reputation had been ruined through no fault of her own. Her body bore angry scars from the incident, and her mind was tormented from the trauma of the event.
In her turmoil, the Clayton family receives an unexpected visitor. Mr William Bellinghan is the local magistrate investigating the case. But his involvement in their nightmarish carriage ride leaves Hannah with many questions. Why would such a rich and influential man be so personally interested in her plight? And why did his hazel eyes remind Miss Clayton so much of her highwayman?
Jeanne Johnson is a long time lover of historical romance. Her obsession began in 1999 when she first got her hands on a VHS copy of the BBC's Pride and Prejudice, from there she devoured all of the Jane Austen novels and adaptations that she could get her hands on. Then in 2004 she discovered Harlequin historical romance novels, and since then it has been her dream to write and publish in that genre.
Her first completed work, Miss Clayton's Highwayman, is available now in ebook format.
Jeanne lives in England, in the beautiful county of Lincolnshire, with her two boys, two cats and very own Mr Darcy.
