James, Earl of Crofton - Rebecca Cohen - Bog

A tale set in Restoration England, where the next Earl of Crofton must put his family first, despite the temptations of an enigmatic highwayman. James Redbourn enjoys all the pleasures King Charles II's Restoration court affords him. When James encounters the Chivalrous Highwayman in Epping Forest it ignites a delicious fantasy for the court, but it is the intriguing Adam Dowson, the son of one of the greatest Cavalier generals, who fires James's daytime desires. Unfortunately for James, Adam seems to be one of the few men who is impervious to James's charms, no matter how hard James tries. James is ill-prepared to become the 4th Earl of Crofton, so when his father succumbs to illness, issuing dire warnings on his deathbed, James must somehow learn what is expected of him, and discover what is happening at Crofton Hall that had troubled his father so deeply. James hopes he's not making a mistake, risking his family estate, and his already bruised heart when he turns to Adam for support. Together, they need to work to clear out the rotten core at Crofton Hall, and along the way secure a happy future for them both.
