From nationally best-selling author Rebecca Hagan Lee comes a romance set in England during the 1790s. The Earl of Weymouth insists his son marry before going off to fight the French. Lady Tressingham insists her daughter marry as soon as possible as well. The children, however, are very resistant to the institution of marriage. But they do wed as a matter of convenience. When Griffen returns from war, though, he's a different man than before-and he hopes he can prove his love to Alyssa, the woman he left when she was barely a bride. 'This tightly written novel is well-crafted and has strong characters ... As always, Lee touches the right chords in her readers.'-Romantic Times
