Gentle Journey

1812 Surrey, England.

Deceased vicar’s daughter and spirited aspiring artist, Eden Barrett is forced to find work as a governess to help provide for her family.

A chivalrous earl with a father wound and a heart for abandoned waifs, Colin Ashton hires Eden to teach his precocious sister, warning her not to proselytize the child. But her faith is who Eden is, and when her charge asks challenging questions about God, Eden answers candidly. Sparks fly as Colin and Eden cross verbal swords.

When Eden rescues two climbing boys and hides them on Colin’s estate, she makes an enemy. Her beliefs lead her into and out of trouble with an unprincipled rake of a neighbor and a chimney sweep out for vengeance.

But, when Eden finds herself irrevocably drawn to the agnostic Colin, her faith is tested indeed.

Headstrong Lady Diana Ashton has planned her future. She wants to make a difference in the lives of the poor, to travel extensively, and if she must marry, she’s determined to marry a devoted statesman. Then she’ll be poised to influence his work in parliament to improve social conditions.

Abducted as a child and raised with no schooling, Lord Eversley doubts his competence as a politician. He much prefers painting portraits. His childhood sweetheart inspires him to reconsider his worth and responsibilities.

When a carriage accident threatens to paralyze Diana forever, her future crumbles. She discourages Eversley’s attentions, believing she can now only ruin the prospects he deserves.

Surrendering the life she planned, Diana accepts the life God created her for, one far superior than she imagined.

To see what a scamp Diana was as a child, read the first book in the Chadilaine Manor Regency series, Gentle Journey.
