A Cornish Betrothal cover

The fifth book in a sweeping historical romance series set in Cornwall, perfect for fans of Poldark

Cornwall, 1798.


Eighteen months have passed since Midshipman Edmund Melville was declared missing, presumed dead, and Amelia Carew has mended her heart and fallen in love with a young physician, Luke Bohenna. But, on her twenty-fifth birthday, Amelia suddenly receives a letter from Edmund announcing his imminent return. In a state of shock, devastated that she now loves Luke so passionately, she is torn between the two.

When Edmund returns, it is clear that his time away has changed him - he wears scars both mental and physical. Amelia, however, is determined to nurse him back to health and honour his heroic actions in the Navy by renouncing Luke.

But soon, Amelia begins to question what really happened to Edmund while he was missing. As the threads of truth slip through her fingers, she doesn't know who to turn to: Edmund, or Luke?

A most enjoyable read set in the wild and majestic landscape of Cornwall. It will delight Poldark fans. * Ellie Dean, author of the Cliffhaven series, on Pengelly's Daughter *
