I read this book twice by accident. It was more of a parable than a romance novel. And an excellent story when judged in that manner. There were many parts that were difficult to get through but the final scenes of ultimate redemption are worth it.

The Unlikely Angel by Betina Krahn.
Lord Cole Mandeville has been appointed by the court to over see new heiress Madeline Duncan spending.
This is a some what Utopian novel, as Madeline is trying to build a factory and town, and improve peoples lives while she is about it. Also she wants to change fashion, and get rid of corsets.
