Bless Thine Inheritance


Sophia Holloway - 2018
    A near fatal riding accident has left her with a pronounced limp which means she cannot even make a good curtsey, let alone dance. There can be no expectation of marriage, but her Mama makes one last effort, not least to avoid her cousin inheriting a considerable sum from their grandfather’s will. She draws up a list of guests for a country house sojourn, picking only young ladies she feels will not be rivals, and some potential suitors. Among the well-bred gentlemen is Lord Levedale, sent by his reprobate father to restore the family fortunes by wooing an heiress, a beauty tarnished by her family background in trade. When he meets Celia he sees her, not the limp, but even as his heart draws him to her, he is held back by his duty to his family name. Sophia Holloway’s graceful Bless Thine Inheritance is about who people are, not how they look. The book’s sharp and witty social observation and elegant verbal duelling weave together two love stories, a guest from Hell, a meddling mama and a grandmama who would give Downton Abbey’s Dowager Lady Grantham a run for her money. Praise for Sophia Holloway... "The Devil You Know is an immensely satisfying read. Everyone loves a Georgian rake and Sophia’s hero doesn’t disappoint. Lord Ledbury’s as naughty as they come – enough George Wickham to set the pulse racing, with a civilising measure of Mr Darcy’s nobility to ensure you fall in love for all the right reasons" - Annie Holder, author of Against All Odds Sophia Holloway describes herself as a ‘wordsmith’ who is only really happy when writing. She read Modern History at Oxford and her factual book on the Royal Marines in the First World War, From Trench and Turret, was published in 2006. Among her published fiction is The Devil You Know, another Classic Regency. She also writes mediaeval murder mysteries under another pen name.
