She lost herself to survive. He found her when he wasn’t even looking. Lady Charlotte has been called many things—victim, villain, broken. In truth, she carries pieces of each and wears none of them proudly. After years of cruelty and choices no soul should be forced to make, she believes her heart beyond repair. So she lives quietly. No hope. No expectations. Just endurance.
He married her to defy his father. He stayed to make a promise. Sebastian Campbell intended his proposal as rebellion—a calculated strike against the father whose control has cast shadows over his life. Charlotte was meant to be a symbol. A name. A quiet match that made noise. But from the moment he sees her, wounded but upright, something shifts. What began in defiance becomes something deeper.
Their arrangement may have begun as rebellion, but it evolves into something far more profound. Charlotte fears the cage of marriage, but Sebastian offers not restraint, only refuge. And slowly, when he begins to see not what she endured but who she’s becoming, Charlotte starts to see herself through gentler eyes—those of a man who chooses her for who she is, not what she survived.
She thought she was too far gone. He never stopped believing in her return.
🕯️ If you’ve ever doubted your capacity to heal—and longed for someone who sees your pain and stays anyway… this story is yours.
Each love story in this series can be read as a stand-alone. However, most readers prefer to read them in order.
🪶 I write love stories that heal slowly and speak gently—about courage, belonging, and becoming. They start with romance. They stay for heart.
It was an amazing story of love and redemption after betrayal and abandonment. But I had already read it. I wish she would tell when these are not new stories.
Delightful story! I enjoyed finding out about how Charles Whickerton and Beatrice came together. Beatrice has found herself in a situation where she may be forced, by her parents, to marry a much older man. When Charles first meets her, he is determined to make her his own. This is a beautiful, romantic tale and I highly recommend it.

Another beautiful story by this intrepid author. I loved the previous books in this series but this one blows the others out of the water. Troy and Nora are such fabulous characters that you struggle to understand why they separated five years ago. Secrets & misunderstandings along with some twists and turns kept my interest from start to finish. I thought that Grandma Edie was wonderful! This is a fantastic story that you don’t want to miss, but it helps to have read the earlier stories, in order to understand the Whickerton family members.
