About the book
It wasn't a lie, exactly The rumors about the night Lucinda spent stranded on Marshall's Island with the dashing Englishman, Leo Grosvenor, simply got out of hand. Denials of an affair only brought knowing smiles, and Lucinda began to enjoy having people believe someone as glamorous as Leo found her desirable. As the rumors flourished, so did Lucinda. Besides, she reasoned, Leo was safely home in England. She certainly never expected he would return to South Port and force her to live the lie.
