Clean & Wholesome, Colonial American Historical Romance. No swearing or intimate scenes. PG-Rated Romance.
As the head of his family's shipping business, Colin Conroy has wealth, power, and prestige. He has no interest in love since betrayal broke his heart. Now a recluse, he is painfully aware that the day he must marry to sustain his family's legacy is fast approaching.
When penniless beauty Sara Stone is struck from her cart while making a delivery to Conroy Manor, Colin insists on taking care of her. Sara isn't used to anyone—least of all a man—showing her kindness. Worried that she has become indebted to the most powerful man on the Island, she eagerly agrees to help Colin choose a suitable bride for a marriage of convenience.
But as the weeks pass and the pair become close, sharing their broken hearts and broken pieces with one another, Colin begins to wish it was her name on the list. Sara doesn't realize he has fallen for her and is already longing for the matchmaker to become his bride. But he gave his heart to someone before. Is he willing to risk it again before she disappears from his life for good?
