About this ebook

Will his efforts to save a beautiful childhood friend in distress lead a Christian young man to true love, or will the weight of his guilt over a family tragedy bury him in the depths of despair?

Johnny Davenport's carefree life came to an abrupt halt when he unknowingly contributed to a family tragedy, and while no one else holds him responsible, the guilt he carries has led to months of sullen introspection. When his flighty, overdramatic neighbor, a childhood friend who seems interested only in social status, enlists his help when her parents pressure her to marry a foreign noble, he can't say no. She's no longer the little girl he remembers, and he finds himself distracted by her pretty smile and even more so by the absolute faith she has in him.

Can Johnny forgive himself and open his heart when their fake engagement leads to real romance, or will he turn his back on a hopeful future, casting himself and the woman he loves into misery?

This is the 4th book I've read written by Cecily Wolfe; I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the 3rd book in the Cliff Walk Cousins Series; it is a stand-alone book. The story is about Maria & Johnny; they have been friends and neighbors since childhood. After a family tragedy that he blames himself; she proposes to him because she needs his help, her parents are pressuring her to marry a foreign noble. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.

Maria and Johnny. The first two books were excellent great writing and a splendid cast of characters and book three just continue in the same way. This Christian historical was captivating Johnny and Maria blended so well together. There an interesting twist in this one. This is a bit of an emotional roller coaster and the author did an excellent job of building up the suspense until the very end of the book. Will they make a match? I did receive a free copy of this book from Booksprout and voluntarily chose to review it.
