A Chance of a Lifetime: A Regency Historical Romance - Paperback

by Emily E. K. Murdoch (Author)

Rowing lessons have never been this scandalous...

Michael Chance, future Viscount Pernrith, is immigrating. Secretly.

It isn't that he doesn't love his family, but he certainly doesn't love the expectations put upon him, or the boredom of Society, or the dull existence stretching out before him. He craves adventure, excitement-anything but another card party! So, immigrating it is.

Without telling his family. He can't face the tears.

Unfortunately, his plans for adventure go awry because no ships in London are leaving for anywhere exciting for at least two weeks. And he certainly doesn't expect to quite literally collide with a sea captain with a bosom to die for and a mouth that could curse better than his own.

Captain Phylis Seaton has known nothing but the sea. Raised by her father on the Dreamer before inheriting the ship, she lives a life on the move, going where the wind-and the work-takes her.

An unlikely friendship. A passion neither of them can deny.

But there's just one problem: Michael is still determined to immigrate, and Phylis is just as determined to prove to him that the noble landlubber is not prepared for a life at sea.

And if someone were accidentally to get their heart broken in this debate, would it be the nobleman struggling to face his future or the wild woman of the sea struggling to outsail her past?

Neither Michael nor Phylis are prepared for this chance of a lifetime...

This novel continues the highly anticipated Chance family drama, with sixteen cousins and triple the problems. Tropes include: found family, grumpy/sunshine, she's the professional, secrets and lies, teach me (she's the expert), and of course, Emily E K Murdoch's tried and true method of sizzling, joyful romance.

This full-length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after and no cliffhangers. It is part of a series that can be read in any order.
