The Lord of Pennington
By: Angela Ashton

An erotic Victorian novel that could challenge the boundaries of many readers. The heroine, a child of rape, is used inappropriately by the Lord and his many sons. The author does an extraordinary job of humanizing all the characters so the story rises above the underlying debauchery and concludes with a satisfying ending.

Frances is given an ultimatum by the Lord of Pennington to use her unfashionable intelligence to help his son comprehend his lessons or he will marry her off in an arranged marriage. She quickly discovers the power the Earl holds over everyone on the estate, including his true relationship with her mother and why he treats her brothers the same as his sons. She is the only one unrelated by blood to the Earl. She is tainted with an unforgivable sin: she is a child of rape. Determined not to be sent away from her family, she resolves to do whatever it takes to be of use to the Lord of Pennington. She takes this path in desperation, knowing she will never be loved except by those who love her now. Thus, she is most astonished when a series of traumatic events lead her into the arms of a good man who can overlook her past. The sequel to ‘The Rights of a Lord.’
