About this ebook

Bound by duty to his family, Anthony Southcott—the newly titled Earl of Huntley—has one weekend to secure a suitable bride before returning to his Foreign Office post on the Continent. A Valentine’s Day ball and house party, arranged by a determined matchmaker, should solve the problem neatly—until Anthony comes face to face with the one woman he can’t consider.

Lady Elizabeth Dunridge is the woman who shattered his heart by refusing his proposal a year earlier.

Anthony is resolved that his future bride will not be Elizabeth. Yet seeing her again awakens feelings he believed long dead, and ignoring her proves far more difficult than expected.

Elizabeth has spent the past year regretting the choice that cost her the man she loved. Determined to heal and move on, she never anticipated spending a weekend with Anthony—or discovering that her feelings for him remain painfully strong. Every attempt to seek his forgiveness is thwarted by two eager debutantes, both intent on claiming the Earl for themselves.

As repressed emotions simmer, can the magic of Valentine’s Day inspire Anthony and Elizabeth to mend their broken hearts and rekindle the love they once shared?

An Earl for Elizabeth is a sweet M/F Regency romance novella featuring: second chance love, forced proximity, and a race against time. It can be read as a standalone story. Chronologically, it pre-dates the other books in The Oxford Friends series.
