“Fight me or Marry me!” Frances Kendrick was not a woman willing to sit idly by and wait for her Prince Charming. An heiress, the best rider, hunter and swordsman in the Royal County of Berkshire in the last year's of good Queen Anne's reign, she found the men presented to her either boring, stupid, or most often both. Until she met this scapegrace of a lawyer, Benjamin Child. This sweet romance with a paranormal twist follows their developing passion and the means they used to bring their romance to fruition despite the objections of her trustees.Set in Reading and thereabouts in 1714, the story commences with the memorial service for Frances' older brother. Since she is the heiress to a baronet, Miss Kendrick did not want for suitors. She wanted for acceptable suitors, as the men she met were simply not up to her standards. When she finally meets one who is, a circuit-riding barrister named Benjamin Child, her trustee's refuse their approval. He's too much of a fortune hunter, gambler and wastrel for their tastes. Despite their difference in rank and fortune, he's the man for her and she's the woman for him. Complications abound in the story, ranging from a gypsies' curse, to highwaymen, to nobbling jockey's before a critical horse race, and even to the activities of the Hellfire Club.
