About the Book
A vilified man. An uptight schoolmistress. Can opposites truly find love or will their unlikely attraction lead to misery?
Tobias Sutton understands the whims of fate. Finally blessed with a second chance, he has no interest in squandering the love of his family and friends after decades apart from them. However, Alvira Damon irritates and intrigues him as no woman ever has. She’s prim and proper and clings to a wit that hides a vulnerability he yearns to witness. He wishes he were a better man. A man she’d trust enough to share her true self with.
Alvira Damon has no interest in romance. She is a no-nonsense schoolteacher, focused on her students and little else. Understanding her responsibilities, she refuses to renege on them. Against her better judgment, Alvira incites a war of words with the local Mercantile owner, Tobias Sutton, and she’s never felt more invigorated in her life. Alvira knows she should avoid him, but her interactions with Tobias make her feel truly alive for the first time in her life. Against all rational argument, Alvira yearns for what Tobias claims he doesn’t want: to be his wife.
When Alvira learns of his past transgressions, will fear and doubt destroy the tender feelings blooming in her heart or will Tobias finally find a woman strong enough to accept him, past and all?
