The Bride of Larkspear is the erotic novella penned by David, Viscount Hastings, in Ravishing the Heiress and Tempting the Bride. It’s his erotic imagination of what he'd like to have happen if he needs to *rescue* Helena from ruin from her affair with Andrew Martin. So David is the groom, Helena the bride, and we begin with Helena tied to a bed for their wedding night.

It's a 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 novella with an HEA, best read immediately after Tempting the Bride. Sherry Thomas made even me blush a little with this. Helena calls this smut in Tempting the Bride and its absolutely A+ smut.

This is the erotic novel written by David Hillsborough, Viscount Hastings about Helena Fitzhugh that we see in books 2 and 3 of the Fitzhugh series.
It takes place almost entirely in the bedroom, so much spicy fun!!

How is Hastings’ Helena fanfic better than Tempting the Bride?

Don’t read this until you’ve read Sherry Thomas’ Tempting the Bride. I don’t think it works without it. (Hence the four instead of five stars.)

But if you HAVE read it, then it DOES work. 🥵

Super hot, super twisted.

as a product of david's fantasy it makes sense but if i were helena i'd make him go through some serious edits before declaring it fit to print. 2 stars
