About this ebook

2 March 1810 . . . Today, I fell in love.

At the age of ten, Miranda Cheever showed no signs of Great Beauty. And even at ten, Miranda learned to accept the expectations society held for her—until the afternoon when Nigel Bevelstoke, the handsome and dashing Viscount Turner, solemnly kissed her hand and promised her that one day she would grow into herself, that one day she would be as beautiful as she already was smart. And even at ten, Miranda knew she would love him forever.

But the years that followed were as cruel to Turner as they were kind to Miranda. She is as intriguing as the viscount boldly predicted on that memorable day—while he is a lonely, bitter man, crushed by a devastating loss. But Miranda has never forgotten the truth she set down on paper all those years earlier—and she will not allow the love that is her destiny to slip lightly through her fingers . . .

Ratings and reviews

Very touchy love story at first, but it turned out i became quite annoyed with Turner attitude. In my opinion, he is selfish & infuriating in the middle of the story.

so creepy. I couldn't finish it because of how creepy and controlling and just red flags Turner is in this book, and she makes Miranda a push over

This simply the best historical and maybe romance novel written. From start to finish it is well thought out. Its funny, its relatable but is mushy and feeling and just damn good
