Description
A mysterious pendant, a distracting earl, an unfolding scandal...
Miss Elinor Avely can’t resist the call of a large jewel mysteriously concealed at a ducal garden party. After all, if the Earl of Beresford isn’t attending, what else is Elinor to do with herself? Her talent for divining jewels can be an intriguing distraction for once, instead of a carefully guarded family secret.
Of course, her hunt for the jewel leads her straight into a mystery – and worse, an undignified encounter with Beresford. Yet when Elinor’s quest goes from unseemly to scandalous, he is the one who tries to save her.
The question is: will she let him?
A Pendant for Trouble is the prequel novella to the Lady Diviner historical mystery series, set in the Regency era with generous servings of magic, mystery, and romance.
