A seemingly fragile beauty, Zelda Rawle is anything but the pliant heiress the Faircombe family expected. Once her wedding to the heir is over, she intends to carry out her own plans. They don't include the towering enigma that is the estate's shepherd.
Lord Geoffrey Eliot will play his sheep-herding part as long as it takes to learn Miss Rawle's secrets. The laughing, peculiar Miss Rawle would make a poor lady of Faircombe, and he's made an unbreakable promise to protect his family.
The closer the mismatched pair become, the greater the danger that Zelda will miss her chance at her lifelong dream - and that Geoffrey will shatter his family by falling in love with the woman intended for his brother.
A sweet and sensual romance of two people who had to meet to find the world at their feet.

He Stole the Lady is a historical regency romance novel with steamy moments and sweet ones, of about 430 pages.
It features a big man with an even bigger heart, a woman who loves whiskey and saying what she thinks, an estate full of animals and the icy spring of 1814. No cliffhanger, and a Happily Ever After!
He Stole the Lady is a standalone book, but Judith Lynne fans will appreciate seeing old friends again. Lord Geoffrey makes a very large Cinderella.
