The Bitter Heart of Eloise (Of Love and Arrangement #3)
Alice Lockley

Eloise tells her tale here, she relives a past full of hate, anger, and grief. One that is also tempered with love and acceptance.
Yet Eloise, for twenty years, has known there is no happy ending for her, perhaps now, through sharing her past, and finding new friendships, she can have the peace and affection long sought and little looked for through her loyal friend, Jane Colforth.
This is not your average romance, the hero does not save the day, Eloise must live with the consequences of her actions, and learn that one might love again, even if it is of an unconventional kind. Can Eloise risk the censure of society once again to hold on to the love she wants?
Of Love and Arrangement is a series of interconnected but stand alone novels, and while each one can be read without the others, they are best read in order.
