A Cornish Betrothal by Nicola Pryce.
Cornwall, 1798. Eighteen months have passed since Midshipman Edmund Melville was declared missing, presumed dead, and Amelia Carew has mended her heart and fallen in love with a young physician, Luke Bohenna. But, on her twenty-fifth birthday, Amelia suddenly receives a letter from Edmund announcing his imminent return. In a state of shock, devastated that she now loves Luke so passionately, she is torn between the two. #histoicalfiction
Historical Fiction set in Cornwall 1793-1800.
My books are set in 1793-1800 among the shipbuilders and merchants on the south coast of Cornwall. Britain is at war and Cornwall must look to her defenses. Navy ships await orders in Falmouth, the wheat fields lay in ruin, people are starving, and corn riots seem inevitable. China clay has been discovered and a new harbour is required. With the threat of invasion, volunteer forces need to be mustered and a constant watch kept for French spies. #historicalfiction #acornishbetrothal #cornishsaga
