Synopsis

Let the delightful banter between the poor but irresistible rogue and the wealthy, sharp-witted Victorian heiress pull you into a cozy fantasy world brimming with magical powers, steamy kisses, and enough sparks of attraction to run a small country.

An edge-of-your-seat cat hunt, a magical library shrouded in mystery, unlimited magical powers, and the scoundrel willing to sacrifice it ALL for the woman he loves.

Victorian England, 1848:

When the powerful Fairshaw Master dies, an ancient prophecy promises the title of Fairshaw, and Lady Adelaide Fairshaw's hand in marriage to the man who can find the Fairshaw Cat.

The sharp-tongued Lady Adelaide is far from a proper lady and cares little for society's expectations that she, as an unmarried woman, must obey the wishes of her dead father. She has no desire to sit around, draped in a starched, black mourning dress to wait for a stranger to catch a cat and force her into an arranged, loveless marriage.

But then she meets Frederick Holloway, the opportunistic dock worker determined to pull his sisters out of poverty, by whatever means necessary.

Including climbing the wall to her window to convince her to help him find the Fairshaw Cat.

Lady Adelaide is determined to hate the brazen scoundrel refusing to leave her alone. But soon their verbal sparring leads to love, and she begins to hope against hope that Frederick will be the man who finds the Fairshaw Cat after all.

What happens to their forbidden love when another man finds the cat?

The Fairshaw Library is a stand-alone, enemies-to-lovers, cozy gaslamp fantasy romance set in a magical, but historically authentic, Victorian England with a scoundrel with a heart of gold, and a strong female heroine who knows so much better than to fall for him. For fans of British regency historical romance, victorian historical romance, clean & wholesome romance, and fairy tale fantasy romance.

Sparks fly when a scoundrel with a heart of gold sets out to win the heart of an heiress in this magical historical romance. The result is a cozy gaslamp fantasy brimming with old magic, tender love, steamy kisses, and perfectly brewed Earl Grey tea.

It's 1848, and in a small Victorian town in the stunning English countryside, the powerful Fairshaw Master has just died. A prophecy promises Lady Adelaide's hand in marriage to any man who can find the Fairshaw Cat.

But Lady Adelaide is far from a proper lady and cares little for society's expectations that she must obey the wishes of her dead father, wait for a stranger to catch a cat, and be forced into an arranged loveless marriage.

She's less than impressed when a dockworker by the name of Frederick Holloway climbs the brick wall to her window to request her help in finding the magical cat.

But their bickering soon turns to flirty banter, and they fall in love. Now all they need for their happily ever after is to find the cat.

So what happens when another man finds it first?
