You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!
This HaBO is from Mai, who’s been searching for this book for months:
I am not quite sure if this is a full-length novel, a novella, or part of an anthology.
It’s a historical book — the male lead is probably an earl or a duke of some sort and he’s married with children, but routine has dampened his and his wife’s relationship quite a bit. The man starts to leave his wife little notes to rekindle their love and I think these notes are about his fantasies or maybe he asks her out; I’m not too sure exactly.
I also remember that the male lead thinks a friend of his wife might be after her and that’s why he is so desperate to have her fall back in love with him.
Does anyone know this one?
Is this Miranda Neville’s Lady Windermere’s Lover?
Pretty sure it’s Forever Yours by Charlotte Featherstone.
YES! Oh my God you people are just amazing! It’s ‘Forever Yours’. As soon as I saw that name something clicked in my brain and just –Thank you so much for this, Emily. You’re a genius =D
No problem! As soon as I saw the heading, I thought that might be the one you were looking for. Forever Yours is one of my favorite novellas!
This sounds great!! A bit pricey for a novella but my library had it.
Whatever happened to Charlotte Featherstone? I liked her dark historical Addicted series, but she hasn’t published anything recently.
I don’t think she’s publishing anymore. She hasn’t put anything out for a couple of years, and I think I saw on goodreads that someone had contacted her publisher, and they said she wasn’t working with them any longer. It sucks because I really liked her work, and I’d love to see her The Sins and the Virtues series finished some day, but it seems unlikely.
