By His Grace and Favor: A Traditional Regency Romance (Lord Dere's Dependents)

She would do anything to save her family, if she could only ignore her heart. Oxfordshire, 1800. When a series of disasters strikes the Barstows, oldest daughter Adela devises a secret plan for their salvation: she will marry their elderly benefactor, Lord Dere of Perryfield. But her pursuit encounters obstacles, first in the form of the handsome household tutor, who openly disdains her efforts, and then from her own unpredictable, unruly affections. Tutor Gerard Weatherill faces struggles of his own. Determined to shoulder his way into respectable society, he cannot let anyone draw too close, lest his own secrets be discovered. And clearly the person he must avoid above all others is the observant Miss Barstow. Observant, mischievous, marvelous Miss Barstow. But if he keeps her at arm’s length, will he lose something worth far more than his sterling reputation? By His Grace and Favor is a clean and wholesome traditional Regency romance, first in the Lord Dere’s Dependents series. Each book can be read as a standalone or in order. Christina Dudley is the author of two other series of Regency romances, The Hapgoods of Bramleigh and The Ellsworth Assortment, as well as contemporary Austen adaptation Pride and Preston Lin. Her novels have been called “sparkling,” “swoon-worthy,” and “compulsively readable” (Publishers Weekly). Pride and Preston Lin was chosen as a Top Ten Romance of 2024 by Booklist and as a Gold Standard selection by the Junior Library Guild.
