The Unmarriable Kind
About
Lucretia Goodwin, a teacher with strong opinions and unwavering resolve, has no intention of becoming just another wife. Having witnessed the unhappiness that marriage can bring, she’s determined to remain independent and unattached. Her sister Rebecca’s hasty marriage and subsequent relocation thousands of miles away only solidifies her resolve. And now, she watches with growing concern as her best friend, Amelia, is courted by a man of questionable character.
But everything shifts when the new headmaster arrives. With visions of reform and a surprising belief in women’s rights, he disrupts the foundation of their small academic community. As he campaigns for change within the classrooms and begins to see Lucretia as more than just a colleague, he unexpectedly stirs something within her — a spark of curiosity, desire, and conflict.
Will she be able to resist his charms and remain true to her convictions, or will she discover that there’s more to marriage than she imagined?
Step into the world of 1884 where Victorian societal expectations and personal desires clash in The Unmarriable Kind, a captivating slow burn, historical romance.
