An Invitation to Tea

London, 1908 — Stella Craven thought she had her whole life planned out, even if it was against everything her mother wanted for her. She would marry her childhood best friend and dedicate her life fighting for the right for women to vote. That summer threatens to turn upside down all of her plans when her mother forces her to make the trip to London to look for an acceptable husband.

William Pemberton, the future Earl of Wraughtley, has little time or inclination for a marriage. What he does care about is his lands and the people who live on them, and he's willing to do just about anything to keep the estate in the family, even if that means entertaining the idea of marrying an American heiress for her money.

An Invitation to Tea is a stand-alone sweet romance novella set in the world of A Lady Thea Mystery.
