Clara Partridge has never fit anywhere. Literally. At over six feet tall, she has always considered herself awkward and out of place. But now that she has a chance to break away from the terrible life she’s been living in the American Old West and to start anew in tranquil Wiltshire, England, she is willing to do whatever it takes to fit in. Even though the last job she’s suited for is that of maid in a wealthy gentleman’s house. But when she meets Rev. Arthur Fallon, all of her efforts to be someone she’s not seem to be paying off.

Arthur knows he’s not the best vicar, but he tries to be the best man he can be. Even when the Amazonian Clara captures his heart with one awkward outburst in church. Even when he learns the truth of who she used to be. And even when Clara comes to his rescue to help him care for the baby of a fallen woman. Clara and Arthur know they are the last two people who should be together, but their hearts say otherwise.

But when word of the baby’s parentage leaks out, Clara finds herself scrambling not just to fit in but to find a place for the baby - and for Arthur - and for her - to belong.

Please be advised: Steam Level: Hot

Narrated by the author, who is not a professional narrator, but who sure did have fun reading her story to you and blushing at the steamy parts.
