Stone-Hearted Casanova

Hard-Hearted Kazanova Book Description Year 1875, London. Devon, who was famous for her stubbornness and anger, and who was unaware of the sweat of her brow, was given the good news that many people would die for: the title of count! Everyone around him, including his brother West, considered this title a sign of wealth and prestige. However, the only benefit of this to Devon is; Kathleen, the fresh widow of her hated cousin, three young girls who had not even had a dowry and were raised away from the world, and Eversby Abbey, which had been tormenting the family for four hundred years. But doing whatever everyone wanted and choosing the easy way out was not like him. He was a Ravenel, after all... "I think it's in this part of the play," said West, beaming with delight, "that our noble hero comes to the rescue of the young ladies, saves the day, and puts everything right." Devon rubbed the corners of his eyes with the tips of his thumb and forefinger. "The truth is, West, I couldn't save this damn property or the young ladies even if I wanted to. I've never been a hero before, and I don't intend to be one." Will our "hero" be as determined as he thinks he is on this path with his famous stubbornness? (From the Promotional Bulletin)
