First came trust, then love, then betrayal.
A year ago Caroline had almost been a bride, would have been if Philip hadn’t left her standing alone at the back of a small Cornish church waiting for a groom who never showed up.
“When you love someone,” Caro later decided, “you give them power over you.” And she never intended to give another man the power to break her heart, until David came along with his quiet strength and conviction.
“You’re not alone anymore,” he promised her. But Caro was afraid to weave a dream around him and run the risk of being never a bride, never a wife, never a mother.
