Pursued Beyond Treachery

He’s always been the one, the problem is, she’s not the only one that thinks so.

For Miss Susannah Wayland, John has always been the ideal match. Stuck in her role as his pseudo younger sister, she jumps when she’s offered the chance to attend the London Season and prove she’s no longer a little girl. There’s only two problems: a handsome suitor who is determined to win her affections and an estranged aunt scheming to ruin her.

Lord Johnathan Newhurst knows a plethora of big words, but between his frustrating stutter and crippling social anxiety, he can’t seem to get the right ones to leave his mouth—especially when it comes to professing his love for his childhood friend. With a determined admirer now vying for Susannah’s affection, the clock of opportunity marks his limited time to confess. Can Johnathan gain the courage before another suitor claims Susannah’s heart…or another woman steals his freedom?
