A Stroke of Good Fortune - Daughters of the Gentry, #2

She has never known love. He is ready to give her everything. But someone from her past is determined to keep them apart.

Arabella Northwick has spent her life longing for love—a father who ignored her, a husband who barely tolerated her, and now a future controlled by a man who refuses to let her go. As a widow, she should be free to build a new life for herself and her son, but a ruthless figure from her past threatens to take everything from her. If she dares to defy him, she risks losing the only thing that truly matters—her child.

Theo Dawson has always done his duty, bound to the textile mill that defines his family's legacy. But when he meets the gentle, determined Arabella, he finds a new purpose—one that has nothing to do with business and everything to do with love. She needs protection, and he longs to be the one she can finally trust.

Yet their happiness is far from guaranteed. With forces conspiring against them, Arabella and Theo must risk everything for the chance to be together. Their only hope lies in a stroke of good fortune.

A heartwarming, clean, and suspenseful Regency romance filled with longing, courage, and the power of love against the odds.
