Publisher's Note
Breathtakingly romantic, startlingly original, Connie Brockways novels have captured the hearts of readers and the raves of critics everywhere. Now she brings you a unique and unforgettable love story that begins with a series of letters between a world-weary adventurer and the woman whose love brings him home.
Dear Mr. Thorne,    I give you fair warning. I intend to do whatever I must to abide by your late uncles will and win Mill House. Though I know he never expected me to succeed, and for whatever reasons is using me to shame you, I accept his challenge. For the next five years, I will profitably manage this estate. I will deliver to you an allowance and I will prove that women are just as capable as men. And at the end, I shall accept Mill House as my reward.Sincerely, Lillian Bede My Dear Miss Bede,    Forgive me if I fail to shudder. Pray, do whatever you bloody well want, can, or must. I shall look forward to making your acquaintance in my lawyer's office five years hence, when I take possession of Mill House. Avery Thorne
With the inimitable blend of humor, innovative storylines, and steamy sensuality that has made her one of the genre's hottest writers, Connie Brockway delivers a historical romance set in Victorian England in which a dead man's will pits a young woman yearning for independence against a world-weary adventurer searching for a home.

Industry reviews
Brockway's respect for her audience is apparent in her latest Victorian. The rare story introduces social issues without preaching, characters who are well developed, and enough passion, humor and pathos to satisfy most readers. In Horatio Thorne's will, suffragette Lily Bede is named manager of Mill House for five years. If the estate succeeds, it will be hers. If it fails, it will revert to Horatio's only adult male relation, Avery Thorne, whom Horatio considers a sickly wastrel. But with his legacy on hold for five years, Avery becomes an explorer, corresponding with his "dearest enemy" as Lily sends him his stipend. These epistolary lifelines are the beginning of a most unusual courtship that continues when Avery returns, not as a wastrel but as a handsome, witty and honorable man. The question is, can Avery convince skeptical Lily to trust and love him? Although completely different in tone from her broodingly intense All Through the Night, this is another romance for grown-ups. (Aug.)

MY DEAREST ENEMY

by

CONNIE BROCKWAY

This is the first book I have read by this author, and I enjoyed it very much.  Its characters were very different from the usual romance novel heroes and heroines. 

This is a paperback book.  It is in like new condition.  I purchased it new, and I have been its only owner and only reader.  I do not write in my books, so you won't see any comments from me in any of my books.

I offer combined shipping for books purchased together.

I have a smoke free home.
