The King's brat

the long version

(back cover) **Angel** dressed in a cast-off gown, her copper curls glistening in the sun, presented herself at the kitchen door. She had a message to deliver to the Earl of Benbrook from his sister—who had been beaten to death in Newgate Prison. The Earl of Benbrook gazed at the waif who had been kind to his dying sister. With a mixture of guilt and gratitude, he vowed to turn the street wench into a lady. It was a task that would involve him with Angel far more deeply than he guessed, and would change her far more than she dreamed.
