About this ebook

She broke his heart once. Can he forgive her in time to save her?

Years ago, Regine chose duty over love—leaving behind her first and only sweetheart to marry a titled stranger who secured her family’s future. Now widowed and determined to reclaim her independence, the Duchess of Heartwaite returns to England ready to start again. But one unexpected glimpse of the man she left behind reminds her just how deeply she once loved him… and how much she still does.

James Brentwood has never forgotten the pain of Regine’s betrayal. The solicitor has buried himself in work, vowing never to risk his heart again. But when the woman who shattered him reappears, all his carefully built defenses begin to crack. She’s still the one woman who tempts him to dream—and the one he can never trust.

When scandal and sabotage threaten Regine’s reputation and safety, James steps in to shield her from ruin. But protection soon leads to rekindled passion, and long-buried feelings demand to be acknowledged. Can they risk their hearts once more… or will the wounds of the past prove too deep to heal?

Prepare to fall in love with the characters in this latest addition to Collette Cameron’s Seductive Scoundrels series. Regine sacrificed herself several years earlier when she married an aged Duke after her father died and left her mother, sisters and herself debt-ridden. She gave up the love of her life to do so. They meet again after she is widowed and James, her former sweetheart, has successfully established himself as a lawyer. This novella-length, well written, second chance at love work held my interest from the beginning until the last page was read. I had a smile on my face throughout. A sweet, clean romance with a mild heat level. A perfect read for Valentines' Day or anytime. I was provided an advance copy of this work and offer this voluntary review. All opinions stated are my own.

James Brentwood and Regine Edenshaw had been friends and sweethearts since childhood. Eight years ago they were very much in love and were to be married as soon as she was out of mourning for her father, but she broke his heart when she married an elderly (wealthy) duke. She tries to explain her reasons to him, but young, angry, and hurt, James refuses to listen. When her mother dies, Regine, now a widow, returns to London with her younger sister Juliette. She and James meet accidentally and talk. The feelings are still there, but will it make a difference? This is a lovely Valentine’s Day story. James and Regine are wonderful characters and so much alike. They are both dedicated to and protective of those they love. It might not be easy to get past their broken hearts, but their sisters and friends are determined to help them find a second chance at happiness. I enjoyed this heartwarming story. It is a truly Happy Valentine.

I enjoyed this quick read. Regine and James had been in love. Circumstances ripped them apart. Now was their second chance at love. The sacrifices that Regine made were great, and I loved her dedication to family and friends. I also loved how James was growly one moment and then protective and caring the next while he worked his way through his true feelings. I felt the love and pain of these two and breathed a sigh of relief at the end. I recommend this story. I received an ARC of this story, and this is my unsolicited review.
