Publisher's Summary

From the legendary New York Times best-selling author of Only a Kiss and Only a Promise comes the final book in the rapturous Survivor's Club series - as the future of one man lies within the heart of a lost but never-forgotten love....

For the first time since the death of his wife, the Duke of Stanbrook is considering remarrying and finally embracing happiness for himself. With that thought comes the treasured image of a woman he met briefly a year ago and never saw again.

Dora Debbins relinquished all hope to marry when a family scandal left her in charge of her younger sister. Earning a modest living as a music teacher, she's left with only an unfulfilled dream. Then, one afternoon, an unexpected visitor makes it come true.

For both George and Dora, that brief first encounter was as fleeting as it was unforgettable. Now is the time for a second chance. And while even true love comes with a risk, who are two dreamers to argue with destiny?

Great characters

Excellent story line - with some unexpected twists and turns. Dora was the perfect central character with a very warm endearing nature

Complete Package

One of the best stories that I have heard in a long time, just so different from the usual formula followed by a lot of writers. What a marvellous narrator, so skilled in divining character’s diction.

Beautiful story

What a wonderful story to listen to. They are the kind of books I could listen to all day long.
The narrator’s voice so clear and soothing to listen to. Thoroughly recommend.
