Madeline Whittington, daughter of the deceased Earl of Richfield, emerges from English society s prescribed period of mourning in the winter of 1817. Madeline believes that she no longer belongs in a world of gossip and gowns after experiencing multiple losses. When she rescues a runaway from Ashcroft Insane Asylum, her life will be forever changed as she discovers the dark secrets within the asylum walls. Because of his elder brother s unexpected death, Devlin Greyson becomes Earl of Ravensmoore and struggles between two worlds: one of affluence and privilege and one of poverty and disease. Torn between his desire to become a doctor and the numerous responsibilities of his title, he wrestles with God s calling for his future. Will he be able to honor this God-given gift and win the woman he falls in love with in a society that does not value gentlemen who work? And will Lady Madeline be able to honor her father s memory when she is attracted to the man she holds responsible for her father s death?
Hi there! I'm Jillian Kent. Book Two of the Ravensmoore Chronicles, Chameleon,released in May of 2012 and is available for your reading pleasure. It was May of 2011 that my first book, Secrets of the Heart, The Ravensmoore Chronicles, Book One hit the shelves. My books have been published during a tumultuous time in the publishing world. It's a constant personal challenge of seeking balance while writing new books, working as a counselor, and enjoying my family. This has taken the development of new self-management skills. I'm happy to tell you that Book Three in the series, Mystery of the Heart will release in January 2013 with the youngest sister, Mercy's story and is now available for pre-order. Of course you will be reunited with many of the characters, that I hope you've developed a fondness for, in the previous two books. Mystery of the Heart will complete this series.
If you read Book One you know I'm fascinated with human behavior and how our minds work. This will be even more clear to you if you read Chameleon.:)And if you do read this book PLEASE don't give away the ending so that others can enjoy the journey the whole way through to its conclusion. Once again you will find yourself in Regency England. You will return to Bedlam. You will meet Devlin's sister, Victoria, aka, Snoop. It won't take long to find out why the family calls her Snoop. I hope you will escape into the past with me and you, just like some of my characters may find faith for the future. If you are a sleuth at heart you will love this story. If you want to read the first chapter of this novel to see if it's your kind of read please visit my website at http://jilliankent.com/books.html You can also join in the conversation on my blog anytime.
