Overview

He knocked her off her feet and into his heart. As the Season draws to a close, Julian Northcott prepares to return to Highfield Hall, his family's estate in Yorkshire, though his wish to meet a woman who can stir his heart has not been granted. Until his final day in Town, when an unfortunate incident turns fortunate, and places him in the company of the lovely Annabelle Fairfax. Annabelle Fairfax is promised to another, but she can't get the handsome gentleman who knocked her over-and set her back on her feet-out of her mind. Still, her engagement to Leo de Witte was set long ago by her doting parents and his, and it is an agreement she will not break, even though her heart apparently yearns for another. Now, she could only pray that her ailing father, whom she adores, will be well enough to walk her down the aisle. But on what should have been the happiest day in Annie's life, tragedy strikes, and her life is forever changed in a way she could never imagine. Heartbroken, she now finds herself facing an unknown future. She leaves London for a safe and quiet haven in England's northern climes where destiny-and Julian Northcott--shows up once again. They are sure they are destined to be together forever. Yet when shocking secrets emerge from her past, Annie's future is jeopardized yet again. Worse, her relationship with Julian is seriously compromised. That, coupled with the ever-present threat from a suspected killer on the run causes her to flee to London where she hopes to become lost in anonymity. Julian, however, has no intention of letting Annie go a second time. In the end it will take the strength of his love, the unshakable unity of family, and maybe some help from Scotland Yard to overcome the killer and bring Annie to his side for the rest of their lives.
