No coin nor oath required. For personal study only.
Constantly stifled by the rules of Society, spirited Rebecca Rowley enjoys finding ways to quietlyβor not so quietlyβrebel. But riding bareback and avoiding nosy neighbors are nothing compared to the thrilling secret she is keeping from her family.
When Rebeccaβs quick thinking saves the life of a young girl, she unwittingly attracts the attention of the childβs dashing brother, Lieutenant Nicholas Avery. As that attention turns flirtatious, Rebecca is forced to tell him the truth: she is secretly engagedβto the one man her family would never approve of. Fortunately, Lieutenant Avery is a navy man with no wish to marry, or so they both assume as they enter into a friendship. Rebecca hopes to change her familyβs mind about her betrothed, but the more she comes to know the handsome lieutenant, the more she wonders if she promised her hand too hastily.
After all her carefully laid plans are shattered during a family crisis, Rebecca must force her heart to decide. Should she stay true to the promise she made or fight for the future sheβs only just begun to imagine?
