Escape into a witty and enchanting Regency world in Lisa Berne's The Redemption of Philip Thane, where a notorious rake finds himself trapped in a time loop until he can win the heart of the one woman immune to his charms.
'One of the most exciting historical fiction writers in a long time' - Julia Quinn, author of the Netflix series Bridgerton, on Lisa Berne.
Philip Thane - rogue, rake, and scoundrel extraordinaire - reluctantly arrives in the little town of Whittlesey to give a speech. But fate has other plans as he finds himself stuck in time, reliving the same day over and over again.
Amidst this peculiar predicament, Philip furthers his acquaintance with the delightful Miss Margaret Allen, a writer in town to research her book. Confident in his ability to charm any lady of the ton, Philip is surprised when Margaret remains unmoved by his advances, day after day.
As Philip navigates this temporal loop, he begins to question what he must do to win Margaret's heart and break free from this cycle. Perhaps it is not Margaret who needs to change, but Philip himself - a rogue who, unbeknownst to him, is head over heels in love and in desperate need of redemption.
'Truly one of the absolute best romances I've ever read!' - Sophie Jordan, author of Firelight

Klappentext
The Redemption of Philip Thane is Bridgerton meets Groundhog Day in this rip-roaring regency romantic comedy for fans of Julia Quinn, Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer.
'One of the most exciting historical fiction writers in a long time' - Julia Quinn, author of the Netflix series Bridgerton, on Lisa Berne.
How many times can a rake get it wrong . . . before he becomes Mr Right?
Philip Thane - rogue, rake, and scoundrel extraordinaire - hadn't wanted to show up in the little town of Whittlesey to give a speech. He also didn't expect to somehow find himself stuck in time, waking up every morning to live exactly the same day over and over again.
On the plus side, it's giving him time to further his acquaintance with the delightful Miss Margaret Allen, in town to research the book she's writing. And Philip has no doubt she'll fall starry-eyed into his arms, just like so many other ladies of the ton have done before.
Yet Miss Allen stands firm against his wiles, day after day. How is it even possible? Why won't she change her mind? What must he do to win her heart?
Maybe, just maybe, it isn't Margaret who needs to change, but rather a certain rogue, who - if only he knew it - is head over heels in love . . . and badly in need of redemption.
