Publisher's summary

Until death do they part . . .

Margaret Lovell tries her best to love everyone. But when it comes to Lord Blackwell, she doesn't care to succeed. After the young Earl of Blackwell accused her father of cheating and tricked him out of his fortune, she has despised him for causing their disgrace and lack of security. So when she learns that Lord Blackwell is on his deathbed, she cannot help but feel a lack of sympathy. With her family's financial situation worsening, she doesn't have time to think of anything else, especially the man who caused it.

Peter Trafford, Earl of Blackwell, has never had reason to evaluate his life before now. But with certain death looming before him, he is awakened to a sense of his guilt. When struck with this strange desperation to repair his misdeeds, he writes a letter to Margaret Lovell, the daughter of the man whose reputation he singlehandedly destroyed. In the letter, he offers to marry her. He offers Margaret and her family a life of wealth and comfort—and promises that he will die shortly after their wedding.

But promises, fickle as they are, have a way of breaking.

Love this Larkhall series! Beautifully written and narrated

Each book in this series is a standalone, but together it’s a great saga when you listen to them all. I love Christine Rendel’s engrossing narration and how effectively she distinguishes between all the characters. Again, couldn’t put it down.

Better and better

When I concluded book 4 in the series and saw that Lord Blackwell had his own story with Margaret, I immediately purchased it. Such fun. I am so drawn in to this series and Ashtyn’s fun sense of humor and wit. but it is the poem in the middle of it that really causes her literary brilliance to shine.

Redemption and Love

I enjoyed how all of the main characters in “Lord Blackwell’s Promise” are seeking their own redemption in one form or another. Each one has a soul-crushing cross to bear and is looking for peace and grace for a different reason. The story is at various times funny, sad, and a bit suspenseful, but ultimately it is heart-warming. Highly recommended book in the series!
