THE HIGHEST STAKES
Genre: Historical Romance, England, Georgian Period Read an Excerpt | Message from the Author
Lee’s debut novel is a sweeping tale of romance, betrayal, intrigue and the power of true love. Readers will love the well-rounded, engaging characters, the fast pace and the attention to detail. Though a few scenes are overly descriptive, the extra details do not detract from the overall enjoyment. Charlotte Wallace was orphaned at a young age. Placed in her uncle’s care, she discovered a passion for horses and horse racing. More importantly, she found the love of her life, Robert Devington, a groom in her uncle’s stables. Prompted by his love for Charlotte, Robert enters the army in hopes of proving his worthiness to her uncle. When the young lovers are torn apart, Robert’s persistence and Charlotte’s devotion to her true love will prevail.
