Anne

After the loss of his wife, Colonel William Harding vowed never to love again. But when Miss Anne Oliver arrives as governess to his grieving children, her grace and quiet strength stir something he thought buried.

Twenty-four, well-bred, and far too composed for her station, Anne carries secrets that unravel the deeper her bond grows with the colonel. As affection blossoms into something forbidden, betrayal and fear threaten to tear them apart, leaving Anne to decide whether broken trust is a fate she's willing to endure or a freedom she must claim for herself.
