Every time her brother brought out the contracts giving her control of her finances, she saw the truth of the men who pretended to love her and want her. They wanted her money and the connections to a duke for their businesses. Well, she had had enough of that. The one man who hadn’t balked, she had chased away, not believing he could be any different. Now, though, Michael was back in her life, and her heart whispered his name to her in the dark of night. Michael had accepted the Christmas invitation only because his mother had insisted. Two weeks celebrating the holidays when his best friend had recently died sounded awful, but he had given into her. Then he found Lady Caroline Rose in the same railcar heading to the same place. Could they find a second chance to be together? Could he overcome his loss and her earlier rejection? Would she finally allow him to love her the way he craved? less
