She harbors a secret yearning.
As a lover of animals and nature, Beatrix Hathaway has always been more
comfortable outdoors than in the ballroom. Even though she participated in the
London season in the past, the classic beauty and free-spirited Beatrix has
never been swept away or seriously courted…and she has resigned herself to the
fate of never finding love. Has the time come for the most unconventional of
the
Hathaway sisters to settle for an ordinary man—just to avoid spinsterhood?
He is a world-weary cynic.
Captain Christopher Phelan is a handsome, daring soldier who plans to marry
Beatrix’s friend, the vivacious flirt Prudence Mercer, when he returns from
fighting abroad. But, as he explains in his letters to Pru, life on the
battlefield has darkened his soul—and it’s becoming clear that Christopher
won’t
come back as the same man. When Beatrix learns of Pru’s disappointment, she
decides to help by concocting Pru’s letters to Christopher for her. Soon the
correspondence between Beatrix and Christopher develops into something
fulfilling and deep…and when Christopher comes home, he’s determined to claim
the woman he loves. What began as Beatrix’s innocent deception has resulted in
the agony of unfulfilled love—and a passion that can’t be denied…
