  Book Summary: Kath Thornell writes a beautiful regency romance that had me hooked right from the very start. Kate was thrown into unknown circumstances with her betrothal to the highest bidder. Unbeknownst to her it is her childhood friend James! Side note: James is just everything! *Sigh* He is handsome, kind, and thoughtful. We all need a James in our lives! Thornell beautifully weaves a captivating tale of friendship, love, and heartache. This was a well rounded story with both POVs from Kate and James.
