Enter into the world of the Duke of St. James in Victorian England,
1863. . .
Lizzie Murdock has heard of this Duke, derisively known as merely
'St. James' in an ironic twist to the title he holds versus his lifestyle
known to be anything but saintly. The fact that he is rich and once
considered 'the catch of the decade' holds no attractions for her.
When he offers her an astounding proposal, she is more offended
than flattered and vows to rebuff his determined advances. Little
does she know that their continued sparring over her future will lead
to the revelation that he believes he won't be sharing in it for very
long. "I simply believe there is a very good possibility that you shall
become a widow at an extremely young age," he tells her. "Now
doesn't that make the prospect of marrying me much more
pleasant?"
With those words, Lizzie is sucked into his world, a world where one
would expect to find a self-centered man enjoying privilege and
ease, but where instead she finds a man of uncommon character
fighting for his life and prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for
those he loves.
With her involvement will come consequences that neither of them
can foresee, and an arranged proposal meant to flush out evil
produces much more until their very survival will depend upon their
love for each other.

If you like historical fiction you will love this book. It held my interest from beginning to
end. I read it in only two days. It usually takes me at least four or five days to read a
book as thick as this one, but I was captivated by this author's plot and characters.
Rebecca Melvin is a fabulous author. If you want to be swept into a land of intrigue and
romance then I definitely recommend buying this book. . . Malinda Mitchell, author
(Chain, King of the Wolves)
In The Brief Eternal Silence deserves a five star rating. The author wrote in a wonderful,
refreshing, unique manner. It is filled with romance and intrigue that holds your interest
from start to finish.The descriptions of each character made them seem real and vibrant.
The descriptive text was awesome. Rebecca Melvin has become one of my favorite
authors. . . Rosy Latur, author (Heart of a Victim in Harm's Way)
I am always reading, have been since I was 10 years old. Now some 60 years later I
believe I know not only a good but excellent story when I read one and this particular
book holds your interest until the end. Hopefully she will write more books like this so
that I may continue enjoying her style and storyline. . . Martha Dougherty, author (Bits
& Pieces/Thirty-Six Years Later)
This is an engrossing story. I started it, intending to finish it later, as I had time to
review it. However, I read it nearly straight through, amazed at its effect. The story
captures you quickly, and won't let you go until you finish it. That's good, and the author
tells a great tale that is honest, believable, and interesting from Chapter One through the
end. If you like historical fiction, you will surely like this volume. . . John V. Tieso (For
the Sake of Terror)
It held my interest, I didn't want to put it down. Just when I thought I had some insight
into one of the characters, something would happen and I had to re-think my original
impression. I enjoyed it very much and anticipate sitting down with it again. . .
