The Country Maid

One night. A shameful secret. A family she cannot escape.

Kate cannot wait to escape her abusive step-father, so when the opportunity arises for her to work as a live-in maid at the beautiful Ravensworth Estate, she jumps at the chance.

She loves her new life, and can't believe her luck when she attracts the attention of the charming Alexander, a guest at the house and cousin of the Earl. Daring to dream that they can share a future, she spends a stolen night of passion with him, only for those dreams to be shattered when she finds herself pregnant.

A bleak life awaits and she must return home with her shameful secret, to face the wrath of her step-father.
All seems lost but Kate never loses hope.

Will Alexander ever return to claim her and their child, or has that one night cost her everything?
