Download or read book A Touch of Love written by Barbara Cartland and published by Barbara Cartland EBooks ltd. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After her young nephew and two nieces' parents are drowned in a tragic sailing accident off the coast of Cornwall, the beautiful red-headed Tamara is devastated by their loss and realises almost at once that she is the only person who can look after the three children as she loves them so much. She speaks to the local Solicitor, who tells her that there is no money left in her brother-in-law's estate and so she has no choice but to take the three children to their uncle, the Duke of Granchester, who lives in splendid isolation in a vast sprawling but intimidating Castle in Gloucestershire. The prospect at once appals Tamara. Firstly because she despises the Duke for the way he had cut off all contact with her sister and brother-in-law as he disapproved of their marriage, thinking that she was an actress when in fact she was a renowned opera singer. Worse still, Tamara has written a somewhat scurrilous novel portraying the Duke as the vile character she believes him to be! And the novel is just about to be published in London! Arriving at Granchester Castle in the guise of the children's Governess, she finds the Duke to be as arrogant, high-handed and annoyingly handsome as her fictional portrayal of him and she hates him even more bitterly. Until a touch of love intervenes and changes everything forever.

Book excerpt: At thirty, Aristide, Duc de Savigne is quite literally Lord of all he surveys – including the countless women who throw themselves at his feet, only to be trampled by his arrogance and disdain when he grows bored with them. He may be the darling of Paris Society, but in the eyes of family friend, the Cardinal de Rochechant, his shocking behaviour is “defaming the name of Savigne and making it a byword for every outrage, scandal and vice”. It's high time the Cardinal and the Duc’s mother decide that he is to be married, mends his ways and produces an heir to save the family fortune and legacy. Duped into believing that his mother is dying, the Duc agrees to marry whoever the Cardinal finds for him. And, when the beautiful young innocent Syrilla instantly agrees to be bride to a man she has never met, the Cardinal is amazed. Even when she finds herself bride to this embittered man, obsessed with his long-lost love for a murdered Chère amie, Syrilla adores her ‘White Knight’ with unstinting passion… Can it be that her pure unsullied love is the key that frees his long locked-in-heart?

But little does he expect to be faced with another kind of conflict - with a beautiful young hostage imprisoned in the Imam's stronghold. The lovely Natasha is only nineteen and she was seized along with a Royal party by the Imam's followers and held to ransom against the release of the Imam's only son by the Russians. Orphaned, she has no hope of raising a ransom and instead has reluctantly agreed to be given to the Sultan of Turkey as a 'wife' for his vast harem in return for the release of her nine-year-old brother. The Imam implores Lord Athelstan to escort Natasha safely to Constantinople - a favour he cannot grant lest it anger the Russians and compromise Great Britain. But then he meets her - undoubtedly the most glorious woman he has ever seen, with fire in her eyes, when he informs her that he cannot agree to Shamyl's request. Ultimately Natasha gives him no choice and, when she appears among his party in disguise, Lord Athelstan is furious. Soon their mutual hatred turns to all-consuming love - a love surely doomed by Natasha's pledge to sacrifice herself to the Sultan's harem for the sake of her brother -
