Publisher Description

Lady Roslyn's life is in danger, and her only hope lies in the hands of a loyal servant. Political rivals have forced her into hiding for four long years, but her heart yearns to return home.

When she is relocated to Bridgefield, she finds a community that accepts her, and a groundskeeper named John who promises protection and teaches her self-defense. As their self-defense lessons turn into whispered confessions and growing affection, Roslyn begins to see John as her true home. Yet, choosing love with John means risking her family and her safety.

Despite the differences in their social standing, their bond deepens, and Roslyn must decide if love is worth the ultimate risk. When Roslyn is summoned back home, John must let her go. But the question remains: is the danger truly over, or is Roslyn walking into a trap? John's love and protection have kept her safe so far, but will it be enough?

This heartwarming clean romance, a touching Sleeping Beauty retelling, showcases the power of love, loyalty, and overcoming prejudice. Dive into a story where finding someone you can rely on and choosing them above all else brings joy and hope.
