The Spinster and Mr. Glover (The Revised Edition): Blind Cupid Series, #1

By Karyn Gerrard

His male beauty moved her. His vulnerability touched her. His past horrified her.

 

Longing for adventure, Anne Sommer, a spinster firmly on the shelf, does the unthinkable. She engages a man from the Blind Cupid brothel for several nights of scandalous pleasure. Anne wants the sensual memories to keep her company in the solitary years ahead. However, she did not expect the young man to move her in ways she had never imagined.

 

 Desmond Glover gives sexual gratification—for a price. Since scandal and poverty mired his orphan childhood, Desmond has learned to close off his emotions, particularly concerning his occupation. He did not count on a lonely woman to awaken his hidden passion. And touch his heart.

 

 Not only do the years separate them, but so do their social standings. Can Anne and Desmond cross such a chasm and find mutual desire—or lasting love?

Karyn Gerrard

Karyn Gerrard, born and raised in the Maritime Provinces of Eastern Canada, now makes her home in a small town in Northwestern Ontario. When she’s not cheering on the Red Sox or travelling in the summer with her teacher husband, she writes, reads romance, and drinks copious amounts of Earl Grey tea.   Even at a young age, Karyn’s storytelling skills were apparent, thrilling her fellow Girl Guides with off-the-cuff horror stories around the campfire. A multi-published author, she loves to write sensual historicals and contemporaries. Tortured heroes are an absolute must.   As long as she can avoid being hit by a runaway moose in her wilderness paradise, she assumes everything is golden. Karyn’s been happily married for a long time to her own hero. His encouragement and loving support keeps her moving forward.   To learn more about Karyn and her books, visit www.karyngerrard.com.
