A Cornish Betrothal by Nicola Pryce

9 November 2020 By Editor

Buy A Cornish Betrothal by Nicola Pryce

Eighteen months have passed since Midshipman Edmund Melville was declared missing, presumed dead, and Amelia Carew has mended her heart and fallen in love with a young physician, Luke Bohenna.

But, on her 25th birthday, Amelia suddenly receives a letter from Edmund announcing his imminent return. In a state of shock, devastated that she now loves Luke so passionately, she is torn between the two.

When Edmund returns, it is clear that his time away has changed him – he wears scars both mental and physical. Amelia, however, is determined to nurse him back to health and honour his heroic actions in the Navy by renouncing Luke.

But soon, Amelia begins to question what really happened to Edmund while he was missing. As the threads of truth slip through her fingers, she doesn’t know who to turn to: Edmund, or Luke?

A Cornish Betrothal by Nicola Pryce is published on 5 November, 2020.

Find out more in Historia’s review of A Cornish Betrothal, written by best-selling author Nicola Cornick.
