Savage Love

Wild Hearts Unleashed

In Savage Love, Mary Wibberley transports readers to the windswept moors of 18th-century Yorkshire, where storm clouds mirror the tempest brewing in the heart of Lady Evelina Ashcroft. Orphaned and determined to preserve her family’s crumbling estate, Evelina returns to Ravensmere Hall only to find her ancestral home beset by scandal and neglect. When rugged gamekeeper Rafe Marlow arrives to oversee the hall’s lands, his untamed passion and fierce loyalty ignite a spark she never anticipated. As gale-force winds batter the ancient oaks, Evelina and Rafe clash over duty and desire, each confrontation revealing the depths of their growing—and forbidden—attraction.

Entangled in Desire

Rafe’s world is one of fox hunts at dawn, clandestine trysts beneath moonlit skies, and whispered legends of a hidden valley said to grant its lovers eternal devotion. Yet behind his steely gaze lies a man haunted by betrayal and a vow never again to trust a lady of high birth. Evelina’s genteel manners plateau against Rafe’s raw magnetism, leading to fiery exchanges in candlelit corridors and stolen moments among heather-covered hills. As they unravel secrets buried in family journals—tales of a forbidden romance thwarted by class and greed—their own bond deepens, forcing Evelina to choose between her inheritance and the man who stirs her soul.

A Love Worth Taming

Faced with rival suitors who covet Ravensmere’s fortune and a bitter cousin determined to expose old debts, Evelina and Rafe must unite their strengths to protect the legacy they cherish. In a heart-pounding climax set against a thunderous storm, they risk everything on a pact of trust and surrender, discovering that true love demands both courage and sacrifice. With lyrical prose, richly rendered period detail, and scorching chemistry, Savage Love is a sweeping romance that proves some hearts are born to run wild—and some loves are worth taming.
