Always You

An abandoned wife. An estranged husband.
They have a love for the ages…
But neither of them would be the first to admit it.

William Pratt, Earl of Westfield, has quite the reputation. A wealthy man-about-town in Regency London, he spends his' evenings gambling and guzzling brandy by the bottle—and can’t seem to stay out of the society papers, either. He wants for nothing… except to win back the heart of his wife, whom he abandoned exactly nine-hundred-and-thirty days ago.

Adelaide Pratt, Lady of Westfield, tells herself that she is more than satisfied living the quiet life in the English countryside, far away from her runaway husband. She spends her days drawing in her sketchbook and tending to the rosebushes that grow in her garden, convinced she doesn’t need company beyond the loyal friendship of her well-meaning lady’s maid, Tilly, and her overprotective housekeeper, Mrs. Henderson.

After a moment of clarity sparked by his best friend, Johnathan Chandler, William crash-lands back into Adelaide’s life, and the two begin a torrid dance of misunderstandings, torn between their lingering flame and the explosive arguments it inevitably—and repeatedly—ignites.

Can they manage to find a way to weather the storm and reconcile? Or have a series of miscommunications and foul play conspired to drive a wedge between them forever?



“ALWAYS YOU is an absorbing period romance featuring an eloquent, well-paced narrative and a delightful cast of characters who are never short on charisma. Meredith Lamonica has accomplished an entertaining romp that is a refreshing upgrade from a genre often saturated in melodrama. Humorous and playful, with a smattering of mystery and high-stakes danger, ALWAYS YOU captivates, shocks, and rewards the reader with a will-they-won’t-they romance for the ages that feels at once tender, raw, and above all else, undeniably human.”
