Can a Duke with a broken heart find the missing piece in the smile of beautiful Lady Julia Summers, who is struggling to take the right path in life?
Lieutenant-Colonel Henry Fitzsimmons is a kind, patient man, although the aura of sadness about him is clearly felt by all. When Lady Julia learns his tragic secret, she cannot help but desire to comfort him, although she fears that she can offer him nothing except friendship since her heart seems to belong to Lord James Patterson. Her friendship means more to him than life itself, coming as a balm to his troubled heart when he needs it, but he desires more from her when he realizes his true feelings for her.
When his heart’s desire is to win the heart of the woman he loves, it is only through the betrayal of another that he has a chance to make his feelings known to her.
Will the handsome Lieutenant-Colonel finally have happiness in his life with the beautiful woman of his dreams, or will her attachment to a rogue with no means of supporting her thwart his dreams of happily ever after?

Cute story but Ms Bennett needs to research the vernacular of the era. She slips into terms from the 20th & 21st centuries quite often.Product details

The Lady Torn Heart Faces of Love A Regency Romance Story edition by Jessie Bennett Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Who says true love only comes around once in a lifetime? I found this short, clean regency romance story to be very enlightening in answer to this question and thoroughly enjoyed this book.
The heroie escapes her mother's attempts to find her a husband by staying with her sister and brother-in-law in the country during her sister's confinement.
She meets and falls in love with a neighbor who could lose his title and inheritance if he follows his heart and marries against his aunts wishes.
She aso meets and befriends an "older" gentleman who has, years before, lost his wife and child during childbirth. He has given up on the idea of ever loving again.
I will not spoil the results , but will say that this book was a well written and engaging afternoon read.
The Lady's Torn Heart is a pleasant romance that's perfect for filling an hour or so with thoughts of love in an earlier era. Julia comes to visit her sister and meets not one, but two interesting men. Lt. Col Fitzwilliam is kind & thoughtful and shares her love of horses and riding. James Patterson is dashingly handsome and dancing with him is like a dream. Ultimately someone's heart will be broken.
Characters are fleshed out nicely. The writing is clean & concise, devoid of spelling, grammar, and mechanical errors. The tale fits nicely in the Regency era in which it is set with the very minor exception of a couple bits of dialog.
The story is nice, in a staid sort of way. I personally prefer a bit more excitement than this short story offered, hence 4 stars instead of the 5 others might award.
Julia Summers is visiting her sister Mary, the Duchess of Gaffton, in their country house. Mary is expecting her first child and Julia is hoping to be of help to her and also, happily, to avoid the season in London. However, Julia finds that you don't have to be in London to endanger your heart. On her first evening, she meets Lieutenant-Colonel Fitzwilliam, a handsome, "older" gentleman of thirty eight years. He is a kind, interesting man and she likes him right away. A few weeks later, she meets James Patterson, a handsome second son, whose prospects depend on the good will of his aunt. Which man will she choose? The older, steady man who offers a sincere devotion or the younger, exciting man who would have to defy his aunt and, possibly, lose his prospects?
I really enjoyed this book. I got a peek into Mary and Gaffton's home life. And I was able to enjoy the courtship of Julia. Whom did she marry? Well, you have to read the book, of course. I highly recommend it.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I enjoyed this Regency romance but have the same quibbles I often have with historical romances.
The plot holds true to the regency period, a younger daughter being pressured by her family to
snag a husband. But the author can't stay true to the Regency period with her dialogue. I'm
certain a Regency miss would not say she was "blown away" by another young woman's
singing voice. Nor would she encourage a gentleman caller to "spit it out" when he is struggling
to verbalize something. When I come upon one of those modern day phrases, I am completely pulled
out of the story.
The author tries so hard to get the norms and settings of the period right, why can't she work harder at getting
the language right? That is the only reason I did not give the book a higher star rating.
Bad
Yet another series you'll want to read and a book you can't put down. surprising how it all turns out. Can't wait to read the next book!
This was a very good story. I felt VERY sorry for Julia. She knew titles meant everything but she believed James was honorable. But it still had a HAPPY ending.
Cute story but Ms Bennett needs to research the vernacular of the era. She slips into terms from the 20th & 21st centuries quite often.
