Bride-to-be Ellen Reese was all set to wed "Mr Right." But second thoughts sent her off on a ride that would change her life. Who knew that Mother Nature's worst blizzard would strand her in a mountain cabin with a ruggedly handsome stranger -- a man who was everything her fiance wasn't!
Tall, strong and irresistible, Peter Whitley couldn't believe his good fortune. Miss Ellen Reese was by far the most desirable female ever to curl up in front of the fire. But Peter was a man of honor and would never dare to touch a woman promised to another. Unless that promise was meant to be broken.
Betty Marie Wilhite had always wanted to write. She married Doug, and they had three boys, the first was Douglas Jr., four years later Benjamin, and nine years later the last, Matthew. The family lived in Wilmington, Delaware. She began writing romances soon after Matthew was born. She wrote under the pseudonyms of Betsy Page, Elizabeth Douglas, Elizabeth August and Kathleen Ward.
This is a gem of a romance. From the first pages, Ms. August surprised and enchanted me. Not only is there romance, there is wonderful chemistry. There is adventure and intrigue. There is frustration and relief. Peter and Ellen's journey to HEA was a joy to read.
