The Widower Without a Will - Paperback

Lord Martin Preston is not looking for love. All he wants is to secure his legacy as a progressive baron and caring father. When the rector's widow needs a place to stay, he doesn't think twice before offering her a room at Northfield Hall.

Martha Bellamy lives in shadows. For a decade, she has been under the cloud of scandal around her son's demise, and now she must also live in the darkness of her husband's death. Enchanted by Lord Preston, Martha volunteers to be his private secretary-and, she hopes, his new private friend.

Martin didn't know how much he craved a confidante like Martha. Yet as they share more and more of their hearts with each other, he cannot forget she is a poor widow in his care, not a woman he can love. When tragedy strikes, Martin finds himself doing everything he can in order to protect all he has worked for-and he must decide whether Martha is included in his legacy.

In this final installment of The Prestons, Martin reckons with the legend of Northfield Hall and must prove once and for all whether he deserves the reputation he has earned.
