Mercy's Embrace: So Lively a Chase Book 2: Elizabeth Elliot's Story

Twelve-thousand a year and an extensive estate can gild a sow’s ear, or so Elizabeth Elliot has always supposed. But now that she’s fallen for the dashing Patrick Gill, Elizabeth is almost ready to give up pursuing Mr. Rushworth’s fortune.


And yet, painfully aware of her bruised pride and vulnerable heart, Elizabeth can only despise herself for loving so common a man. It has never occurred to her that darling Mr. Gill guards a secret of his own—and that he just might be responsible for her father’s disappearance.


Jane Austen’s beloved Persuasion provides the backdrop for this delightful romp set in Regency England.

Mercy's Embrace is a Novel in Three Parts
* Book One: So Rough a Course
