Synopsis

London, 1953:  Mina Scott will do anything to escape the drudgery of her life.  She saves every penny to attend a finishing school, dreaming of the day she'll become a real lady - and catch the eye of William Barlow, a frequent guest at the inn where Mina works and lives.  William is a gentleman's son, a charming, but penniless, rogue.  However, his bachelor uncle will soon name an heir - either him or his puritanical cousin.  In an effort to secure the inheritance, William gives his uncle the impression he's married, which works until he's invited to bring his wife for a visit.  William asks Mina to be his pretend bride, only until his uncle names an heir on Christmas Day.  Mina is flattered and frustrated by the offer, for she wants a true relationship with William.  Yet, she agrees...then wishes she hadn't.  So does William.  Deceiving the old man breaks both their hearts.  When the truth is finally discovered, more than just money is lost.  Can two hearts survive such deception?

About The Author

I hear voices. Loud. Incessant. And very real. Which basically gives me two options: choke back massive amounts of Prozac or write fiction. I've been writing since I discovered blank wall space and Crayolas. I seek to glorify God in all that I write--except for that graffiti phase I went through as teenager.

Goodreads review by Rachel on June 26, 2018

The magic of Michelle Griep is that you know she is enjoying what she is writing. That knowing wink to the reader is more alive than the paper and ink of a manuscript ( or at least the type and screen of an e-device). Here, she takes those who spend too much time in the pages of Dickens, his life, w......more

Goodreads review by Bree on October 13, 2018

This book was more than a romance it was a reminder we get second chances in God and with people. Mina wants nothing more than to be with Will in more than a fake marriage. Though she is happy to pretend for his Uncle’s sake, and Will’s. She is a sweet girl with a heart of gold, one that is willing......more
