About the book:
Daphne Blakemoor was content living in her own secluded world for the last twelve years. She had everything she needed--loved ones, a true home, and time to indulge her imagination. But when ownership of the estate where she works as a housekeeper passes to a new marquis with an undeniable connection to her past, everything she's come to rely upon is threatened.
William, Marquis of Chemsford's main goal in life is to be the exact opposite of his father. Starting a new life in the peace and quiet of the country sounds perfect . . . until his housekeeper turns his life upside down.
Both Daphne and William have spent their lives hiding from the past. Can they find the courage to face their deepest wounds and, perhaps, forge a new path for the future together?

My thoughts:
A Return of Devotion was an amazing continuation to the Havon Manor series! After getting to know a little bit about Daphne's story in the first book, I was eager to read this and see what happened next. Right away I found myself invested in the characters and what was going on in their life.
I felt for Daphne SO much as she just wanted what was best (she thought) and had to overcome a lot in this story. The hero, William, was great. At first I wasn't sure what I thought about him, but in the end I loved his character. ;)
All in all, if you are a fan of historical romance you must read this...but be sure to read book one first as I think this series needs to be read in order.
