Unbuttoning Miss Matilda by Lucy Ashford digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A convenient companionship…

…and a passion neither expected!

Ex-army officer Jack Rutherford is on the run—he must go to Aylesbury to prove his innocence! Opportunity strikes in the unconventional form of Matilda Grey, who needs help to pilot her canal barge. Jack is captivated by her unusual beauty, vulnerability and resilience. But traveling together in such close quarters, their mutual craving becomes as impossible to ignore as the secrets which still lie between them…

“Ashford’s pleasant romance grabs readers with its action-packed beginning”
