Description
A spirited young woman. A handsome Irish lieutenant. Has this lonely English girl found her unexpected match?
Rural Northern England, 1812. Kitty Otis longs to fulfill her destiny as a loving wife and mother. But as she cares for her disabled father in the countryside, the dark-haired beauty fears her chances of a proper London come-out are all but gone. So when a brash Irish Lieutenant shows interest, she can’t help being fascinated by him.
Worried his vulgar nature makes him unsuitable, she quits him and journeys to London for her début. But when he pursues her there vowing to mend his manners and proves his love, all that she desires seems possible. Until their families get involved.
With their love forbidden, can Kitty secure the happiness she’s always desired?
Dauntless Hearts is a sweet standalone Regency romance novel. If you like strong-willed female protagonists, rich historical detail, and authentic period language, then you’ll adore this tale by Lincoln Tuvelais.
Advance Praise
I rarely gush about a book, having read so many, but in this case, I couldn’t help myself!... The author does a fantastic job of making the reader care about the characters, and this is not a story that I will find myself forgetting any time soon!”

I was not sure what to expect of this book, but it was a good surprise.
The story was lovely, a real historical romance, and not some kind of duke-meets-girl kind of novel. The scenery and all the sometimes sweet, sometimes cunning females trying to get around in a world designed for men felt very real. I liked Kitty Otis, and how she is trying to bend the rules of society around her, and I was totally heartbroken over the break-up with her Irish Giant. It was again a nice surprise to find a second, slow-burning romance waiting for her.
Lincoln Tuvelais' prose is engaging, it's hard to put down. I also enjoyed the historical accuracy and the descriptions on the way the intricate judgements of polite society worked.
