Lorraine Heath always dreamed of being a writer. After graduating from the University of Texas, she wrote training manuals and computer code, but something was always missing. After reading a romance novel, she not only became hooked on the genre, but quickly realized what her writing lacked: rebels, scoundrels, and rogues. She’s been writing about them ever since. Her work has been recognized with numerous industry awards, including RWA’s RITA® and a Romantic Times Career Achievement Award. Her novels have appeared on the USA Today and New York Times best-seller lists.
These characters are from my March 14, 2017 novella, WHEN THE MARQUESS FALLS. The Marquess of Marsden and Linnie, the village baker’s daughter, have been unlikely friends since childhood. They know there can never be more between them than friendship.
The long-anticipated and utterly extraordinary tale of the Mad Marquess that proves love truly does last forever.The Marquess of Marsden always follows the rules. Expected from birth to adhere to decades of tradition, he plans to marry a proper young woman from a good family. But when a beautiful, and completely unsuitable, woman snags his heart, he begins to realize that to get what you want, sometimes you have to break the rules.Linnie Connor dreams of the independence of running her very own bakery. And while she may be allowed to be a marquess’ childhood companion, the baker's daughter never ends up with the handsome nobleman. Determined to achieve at least one of her dreams, Linnie makes plans to leave her sleepy village for London, intent on purging him from her heart.And yet, when an invitation to the Marsden annual ball arrives, she can't refuse her one chance to waltz in his arms. It will be a night that stirs the flames of forbidden desires and changes their lives forever.
