Will having Sarah close rekindle his lost faith, or make him lose what little he has left after the death of his wife? With the ice melting and Sarah due to leave, she must face a hard truth—perhaps she has too many secrets to marry anyone and would better off falling back into the world she knows, rather than becoming the woman Evander believes her to be.A Song of Secrets is a sweet Regency romance. less
