{"product_id":"9780989709965","title":"The Three Vices: Patience","description":"C.H. Admirand sweeps her readers back into the past to Regency England with book one in her Regency-Era Historical Trilogy: The Three Vices. This re-release has the previously deleted prologue, chapters, and scenes added back in for an enhanced read. For readers who have already read Patience, I have toned down the love scenes to appeal to a broader range of readers. Never fear, the romance is still the most important part of Lady Patience and Viscount Rexley's story.\u003cp\u003eHere's the trilogy overview: Three cousins: Lady Patience Wainwright, Lady Charity Fenwick, and Lady Prudence Thompson, (daughters of three sisters) each have a vice that has their respective parents despairing that they may never find suitable matches for the highly spirited and willful daughters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePatience, Charity, and Prudence...Virtuous qualities a young lady seeking a husband would surely wish to possess.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnless, of course, a well-meaning parent chose to name her daughter Patience, with an eye to the future, hoping her precious child would seek to emulate the meaning of her name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNever imagining her beloved daughter would grow up preferring the break-neck pace of racing her horse across the meadow to taking tea with callers, or that she would prefer angling for trout and firing a pistol to plying fabric with a needle. And, Lord help us all, that she would grow to stand just four inches shy of six feet tall!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePatience is impetuous, impulsive, and impossible. Ah, but her parents have a plan to secure a marriage, and their daughter's future. They intend to find a gentleman of noble birth-with deep pockets-who has never met their daughter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurely somewhere in all of England there is a gentleman who will embrace their daughter, thorns and all. All he need do is overlook her height, and her talent with rod, reel, and pistol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe virtue has become the vice ...\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"C.H.
