โฆ Synopsis
While you were sleeping... With her brother Thomas injured on the battlefront in the Colonies, orphaned Cecilia Harcourt has two unbearable choices: move in with a maiden aunt or marry a scheming cousin. Instead, she chooses option three and travels across the Atlantic, determined to nurse her brother back to health. But after a week of searching, she finds not her brother but his best friend, the handsome officer Edward Rokesby. Heโs unconscious and in desperate need of her care, and Cecilia vows that she will save this soldierโs life, even if staying by his side means telling one little lie... I told everyone I was your wife When Edward comes to, heโs more than a little confused. The blow to his head knocked out three months of his memory, but surely he would recall getting married. He knows who Cecilia Harcourt isโeven if he does not recall her faceโand with everyone calling her his wife, he decides it must be true, even though heโd always assumed heโd marry his neighbor back in England. If only it were true... Cecilia risks her entire future by giving herselfโcompletelyโto the man she loves. But when the truth comes out, Edward may have a few surprises of his own for the new Mrs. Rokesby.
