After a handsome stranger interrupts her morning ride, Sadie McEwan knows her heart is in trouble. The man seeks to buy several mares from her father and promises to return in a few months. Could he be interested in claiming more than the horses?
Harry Cooper longs to court Sadie. But when he returns to the Shenandoah Valley, he finds Sadie changed. She’s reserved and hesitant, and Harry isn’t allowed to speak with her father–about business or his daughter’s hand. A stolen kiss leads to Sadie’s request that he leave. Before he can honor her wish, Harry learns a startling and painful truth–the woman he loves has lied to him.
Can Harry forgive Sadie for her deception? Or has the fragile fabric of romance been torn beyond repair?
