Shy, sweet Cecilia Hatherleigh has always been in love with Edward Amherst, the boy next door.
Shy, sweet Cecilia Hatherleigh has always been in love with Edward Amherst, the boy next door. Yet he’s never seen her as anything but the quiet girl in the background as he flirts with the other vivacious women of the ton.
When a near tragedy brings Edward’s attention to his family duties, this prodigal son decides he needs to settle down with a proper wife. Cecilia hopes to convince him to choose her—but God may want her to forget the wayward nobleman and put her future in His hands alone.
These two try to find their way toward happiness, but prejudice, political riots, and the changing face of England’s societal structures begin to block them at every turn. Can their struggles turn to triumph—or will their paths permanently diverge?
I pre-purchased this book because my name is spelled the same and it was released on my birthday! That delighted me but the book was even more delightful.

I have loved all of Carolyn Miller’s books through three different series but this book….this book really did the ultimate job shredding my heart and then gluing it back together.

Carolyn Miller is one of my favorite Regency romance authors. Oh my goodness does she know how to write a story. She stays true to the time period, provides amazing details that make the story come alive to the reader, gives readers welcoming characters, and pens interesting storylines that you cannot turn away from. I always know when I’m reading a Carolyn Miller book that I need to make sure I have tons of reading time. I don’t want to have to put the book down, and if I’m forced to I don’t want it to be for very long!
