<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When the daughter of Viscount Aynsley encounters a fossil-hunting scientist and his sister, her assumptions about what is right are shaken. Will the trust they've withheld from each other end up tearing three lives apart?<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Can a proper noble lady find a future with a fossil-hunting man of faith?</b> <p/>As the daughter of Viscount Aynsley, Caroline Hatherleigh knows every rule of society--and she's always followed them precisely. But when she visits south Devonshire and encounters a fossil-hunting scientist and his sister, her assumptions about what is right are shaken. Questions she has never considered about the importance of friendship and faith suddenly confront her--and her comfortable understanding about how the world works is thrown off balance. What if God wants to be the center of her life, rather than merely a social obligation? <p/>Gideon Kirby loves science, and hunting down proof of past lives is a joy he won't willingly give up. But his scientific leanings are being challenged both by his personal beliefs and by local smugglers in the Devonshire countryside. And every day his sister's illness becomes more desperate, her care growing more demanding. Adding a viscount's daughter to the mix is a complication Gideon never expected--especially since he must stay far away from this young woman he's falling for in order to protect his beloved sister's secret. <p/>When a mysterious stranger visits the village, that secret will be exposed, no matter how Gideon fights. Then tragedy strikes in a smugglers' cave. And the threat of scandal may lead to broken hearts and passionless propriety. Will the shaky bond these two have nurtured be strong enough to overcome their differences--or will the trust they've withheld from each other tear three lives apart?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Carolyn Miller has quickly become one of my go-to Regency authors. I know when I pick up one of her novels, I will find myself immersed in a story with characters that keep pulling me back to the pages. In <i>A Hero for Miss Hatherleigh</i>, I found myself slipping into a world filled with fossils, friendship, and the whispers of love, yet haunted by a shadow of danger. What will a brother do to protect his sister? And how far will a friend go to protect her new acquaintance? With a keen eye for historical detail and descriptions that transported me to the shores of England, this book was a delight."--Cara Putman, author of the Hidden Justice and Cornhusker Dreams series (2/1/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"In her signature style that sucks readers straight back to the Regency era, Carolyn Miller crafts a story rich with little-explored history that held me enthralled from the get-go!"--Roseanna M. White, best-selling author of the Ladies of the Manor and Shadows Over England series (2/1/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Miller delivers a winsome exploration of life, love, and faith in Regency England. . . . In a lively subplot, Miller delves into the 19th-century conflict between the Christian faith and the science of paleontology. But it is her inclusion of faith issues with an authentic portrayal of Regency society that will continue to delight her growing fan base."-- "Publishers Weekly" (3/1/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>"Move over, Elizabeth Bennet. Here comes Miss Hatherleigh! In true Jane Austen style, Carolyn Miller pens a delightful Regency novel filled with intrigue and a dash of danger. Heroine Caroline Hatherleigh learns a lesson or two in geology and love when she meets the handsome Gideon Kirby . . . but is he who he says he is? Readers of all ages will love this fine historical romance."--Michelle Griep, Christy Award-winner of the Once Upon a Dickens Christmas series (2/1/2019 12:00:00 AM)<br>
