Book 2 of the Dalton Family series
276 pages · First published 2020
Elizabeth Ashburn enters her first Season determined to find a husband who can help her forget her best friend, Oliver Turner. She believes he still sees her as Little Lizzie, unaware that his feelings have changed as deeply as her own. Oliver loves Elizabeth, but painful experiences have convinced him that marrying her would be a mistake, so he resolves to help her find someone else. Their efforts to put distance between their hearts become increasingly difficult as friendship, longing, and fears about the future collide. Tender, humorous, and full of romantic hesitation, this Regency romance offers a cozy evening with best friends who may be the last to understand what they mean to each other.
