       Author Note

      Welcome to the last of my A Year of Scandal quartet. Ever since his great-aunt’s will was read I have been longing to tell James Winterley’s story, but he always had to be the last hero.

      I hope you enjoy reading his and Rowena’s story as much as I did writing it, and thank you for your precious reading time, patience and support through this year of change and discovery for all my heroes.

      ‘Mr Winterley is very handsome, isn’t he?’ Mary Carlinge said with a wistful sigh.
