Description
In this captivating Victorian romance, Beatrix Hathaway—a spirited nature lover who has resigned herself to spinsterhood—finds herself drawn into an unexpected correspondence with Captain Christopher Phelan, a soldier returning from war. What begins as an innocent deception, when Beatrix secretly writes letters to Christopher on behalf of her friend Prudence, blossoms into a profound emotional connection that neither anticipated. As their written words reveal the depths of their souls, Beatrix discovers a passion that challenges everything she believed about love and her own future. When Christopher returns home determined to claim the woman behind those transformative letters, Beatrix must confront the agonizing truth: the man she's fallen for believes he's in love with someone else. Lisa Kleypas weaves a poignant tale of longing, identity, and the power of words to change hearts in this enchanting addition to the Hathaway series.
