She's an orphan waiting for a hero on horseback. He's a sniper grimly fulfilling his duty. Their marriage was arranged when they were children. That doesn't mean they have to like it.
A Gilded Age novella series from Constance Kent:
Eight years in an orphanage hadn't diminished Delphine Butterwick's faith that one day her true love would show up on a white horse and rescue her. Until he shows up.
Captain Thomas Morrow isn't anything like the knight-in-shining she had been dreaming of since her parents died and Tom isn't much happier with Delphine. She's the same insensible child he remembered--only now she is an impractical young woman that he is duty-bound to marry.
A sniper with the French Foreign Legion, Tom tells Delphine he's given up on war. At his family cottage on Long Island, Delphine begins to believe a knight might not always have a white horse and a cape. He might sometimes be an ordinary man who will never leave her.
Tom might have given up on war, but war has not given up on Tom. What was once a way out of their arranged marriage, is now a heart-wrenching problem.
