Girl with the Make-Believe Husband

Autor: Julia Quinn

Go back to where it all began with the second book in Sunday Times bestselling author Julia Quinn`s dazzlingly witty Bridgerton prequel series. A generation before the Bridgertons, there were the Rokesbys . . . While you were sleeping . . . With her brother Thomas injured on the battlefront in the Colonies, orphaned Cecilia Harcourt has two unbearable choices: move in with a maiden aunt or marry a scheming cousin. Instead, she chooses option three and travels across the Atlantic, determined to nurse her brother back to health. But after a week of searching, she finds not her brother but his best friend, the handsome officer Edward Rokesby. He`s unconscious and in desperate need of her care, and Cecilia vows that she will save this soldier`s life, even if staying by his side means telling one little lie . . . I told everyone I was your wife When Edward comes to, he`s more than a little confused. The blow to his head knocked out six months of his memory, but surely he would recall getting married. He knows who Cecilia Harcourt is - even if he does not recall her face - and with everyone calling her his wife, he decides it must be true, even though he`d always assumed he`d marry his neighbor back in England.
