Someone to Trust

Description

During a rare white Christmas at Brambledean Court, Elizabeth, Lady Overfield—an accomplished widow who has long mastered the art of restraint—finds her carefully ordered world upended by the presence of Colin Handrich, Lord Hodges. Though they are separated by nine years, their connection grows into something neither expected: two kindred spirits drawn together by trust, tenderness, and the courage to risk happiness. As old estrangements and lingering family history surface, Elizabeth and Colin must confront what they truly want—and what it will cost to believe in a future together. Mary Balogh’s signature blend of emotional realism, gentle wit, and richly drawn Regency-era relationships makes this a heartfelt romance about second chances, self-doubt, and the transformative power of being truly seen.
