The Mysterious Mr. Oliver: A Regency Romance

The highly anticipated second book in the Miss Fleming series, Emma Melbourne's The Mysterious Mr. Oliver, is now available. In this Regency Romantic Comedy, readers will follow the story of Miss Isabelle Fleming, a beauty of the season who is ready to escape the demands of the ton.

Despite her many admirers, Isabelle longs for a sensible man who can see beyond her looks. After a whirl of social engagements, including balls, routs, and Venetian breakfasts, Isabelle has yet to meet someone who can look past her appearance. Frustrated by this, she jumps at the chance to visit her sister Amelia's country estate, Stonecroft, hoping to find the peace and solitude she craves.

At Stonecroft, Isabelle plans to spend her time writing a novel and enjoying the scenic countryside. However, her plans are disrupted by the arrival of Mr. Oliver, the estate's new land agent. A former soldier with a mysterious past, Mr. Oliver seems completely unaffected by Isabelle's striking beauty, much to her surprise and intrigue.

As Isabelle and Mr. Oliver spend more time together, they begin to see past each other's carefully constructed facades. Isabelle learns that Mr. Oliver is grappling with his own fears and struggles to forgive himself for his past, while Mr. Oliver discovers that there is more to Isabelle than her renowned beauty.

Navigating their growing feelings for one another, Isabelle and Mr. Oliver must confront their personal demons and learn to trust each other. Through this journey, they find the opportunity to not only fall in love but also to heal and grow as individuals.

The Mysterious Mr. Oliver is a delightful Regency Romantic Comedy that explores the themes of facing one's fears, forgiving oneself, and the power of love to transform. Fans of the Miss Fleming series will be thrilled to return to this enchanting world, while new readers can easily enjoy this book as a standalone.

Author's Note: While The Mysterious Mr. Oliver can be read as a standalone, it is recommended to start with the first book in the series, Miss Fleming Falls in Love. This story features a closed-door romance with no explicit content.
