In this fairy tale Regency romance by USA Today bestselling and HOLT Medallion winning author BREE WOLF, an unconventional miss and a stiff gentleman come to see that together they are the perfect match. A barefoot maiden. A painfully proper gentleman. And a friendship most unexpected. NATHANIAL CASWELL no longer wants anything to do with women. Or marriage. Or love. Especially love! After his fiancée leaves him for another, Nathanial is a broken man, his thoughts dominated by doubts and regrets. He no longer sees any beauty in life, certain it will always be thus. However, at his brother’s wedding celebration, Nathanial’s life is turned upside down for a second time. A young woman with raven-black hair and insightful brown eyes approaches him and offers to be his friend. No matter what he does, Nathanial cannot sway her. She insists on being his friend, no more and no less. Simply a friend. Nathanial has never been friends with a woman, but what does he have to lose? MISS CHARLAINE PALMER knows the meaning of pain and loss, and the moment she spots Nathanial Caswell, she knows that he needs her. He needs her to be his friend. And so, she teases him (as a friend would) and riles him (as a friend should). She forces him out of the house and drags him to a masquerade. She pulls him onto the dance floor and urges him along on a frog hunt. She pesters him until he relents, finally loses his shoes and walks barefoot through the lush summer grass. And when Nathanial begins to smile again, his dazzling blue eyes lighting up with joy once more, Charlaine realizes that she just might want more than friendship from Nathanial. But what if he doesn’t? Well, Charlaine has never been one to give up, and she will not start now.
