The Fenwick Inheritance

— Book Four —

To Outwit

an Earl

She came for the limestone. She stayed to win the argument.

Minerva Vane arrives in Westmorland with a hammer, a theory, and the bad manners to tell an earl to his face that he's a credulous man who has let half his county rob him. The Earl of Ingsdale argues back, and he's a great deal better at it than she expected. Then she reads his father's will and understands what she's walked into. So she offers terms, because she won't stand by and watch a decent man bullied out of his home. What she hasn't allowed for is the difference between a man who flatters her mind and a man who fights it.

The Fenwick Bargain

“She knew what she was worth. He disagreed.”

She has spent nine years being useful. It is not the same as being wanted, and she knows the difference to the shilling.

Clemency Verrall is a paid companion with no fortune, no family and no expectations, and she has made her peace with all three. Then her employer sends her into Kent on an errand any footman could have run, and it goes wrong in a way that cannot be quietly undone.

Sir Piers Marchbank owns the land she was sent to buy. He is rude, he is honest, and he has no charm whatsoever. What he has is a habit of treating her like a woman with a mind, which nobody has ever troubled to do.

He would rather insult her than lie to her.

She has been lied to beautifully, and would rather have the insult.

The Author

An acquaintance with Verity

Verity Winters writes sweeping Regency romances filled with scandal, sharp-witted heroines, irresistible dukes, and happily-ever-afters. Inspired by grand country houses, forgotten love stories, and the social games of Georgian England, she brings history to life with warmth, humour, and plenty of simmering tension.

When she's not writing, you'll usually find her with a stack of historical novels, a strong coffee, and plans for her next escape to a stately home or windswept coastline.
