Book description
Red-haired, hot-tempered Elinor had always been a mother to her eight younger brothers and sisters – the wild brood of high-born Jasper Cranshaw. Now, with the death of their father, sixteen-year-old Ellie was their only shield against the cruel forces that gathered to cast them from their home at Madden Hall….. their eldest brother. Nicholas, mysterious, handsome, back from India with plans to disinherit them….. the clan’s old enemy.
Flouting time-honoured rules, Ellie dared courageously to save her family fortune, all the while unable to still the mounting, forbidden love in her heart – for the very man she should grow to hate.
