Quote:Miss Miranda Applegate had vowed that Anthony Gravehill was the only man for her. From the time she was ten years old, until a confirmed spinster at twenty-five, she had held on to her devotion. But when she's invited to the charming countryside of Cumbria to spend the holiday season with her siblings and their families, she reconnects with the crush from her past.

Anthony has emotional wounds from war that have never fully healed, the kind that rival the outward scars he wears. He has found peace at long last, but has never quite forgotten the girl who wrote him countless letters he received on the battlefield, who later continued to help him through the darkest days of his life. He is determined to see her again, if only one last time, but he isn't prepared for the feelings this beautiful woman stirs inside him.
