About the book
A Suitable Match: This was a marriage of convenience, definitely not a love match. Colin Crichton made it clear when he proposed to Eustacia Crump that he wanted a down-to-earth partner who would help him care for his brother's orphaned children, not a dreamy girl whose head was full of romance. But Eustacia couldn't help hoping that one day he might grow to love her as much as she loved him. A Gentle Awakening: After a lifetime of drudgery, Florina Payne finally developed the courage to rebel—there was no danger of her returning home. She loved her new job as cook in the household of eminent consultant William Sedley. And it wasn't long before she realized that she loved her employer, too. But she had no chance of attracting his attention when he was engaged to the glamorous Wanda!
