Descriere The Heart's Choice - Anna Markland

\nA barony in ruins. A mill in crisis. A forbidden love shadowed by murder.\n \n\n \nLancashire, 1861. When Beatrice Parker's father unexpectedly inherits a barony, she's uprooted from her quiet vicarage to the sooty heart of England's industrial north. The estate is crumbling, the mills are in peril, and nothing about her new life resembles the genteel future she imagined.\n \n\n \nRoger Sandiford, a ruthless but self-made mill owner, is fighting to keep his business alive as the cotton famine tightens its grip. When a chance meeting at the train station throws him into Bea's path, he offers her shelter while her family estate is restored. What begins as an act of charity soon sparks a connection neither dares admit.\n \n\n \nBut their fragile bond is soon tested. The body of a young boy is discovered in Roger's mill, casting suspicion over everyone connected to it. Sergeant Halliwell's investigation stirs old rivalries, while Bea's unwelcome suitor-her ambitious cousin-arrives with a proposal that could tear her away from Roger forever.\n \n\n \nAs danger closes in, Bea and Roger must risk everything to uncover the truth. But can love survive when murder taints its first bloom?\n
