The Bride Who Wasn't There

You know the story: a bride ran from the altar at Sanderly. What you don't know is that the earl has never married, and that the woman now binding his books is the bride herself. Clara Morton changed her name, learned a trade, and thought she had left her old life behind — until a commission sends her into the very house she fled. He has spent six years taking the blame for her disappearance. She has spent six years believing he deserved it. What she finds in his library will change both. A runaway-bride Regency historical romance of second chances, quiet rooms, and the truth that arrives at dawn.
