Summary

 "IN TRUE MAY MCGOLDRICK STYLE, A TIMELY AND HEARTWARMING STORY FOR THE HOLIDAYS!"  
Paige Coleman has stayed away from her beloved seaside home in the Connecticut village of Stonington ever since being mortified by the 'viral' YouTube video that captured her in the buff at the top of a whaling ship at Mystic Seaport. 
Now, four years later, Paige decides that the time has come to face up to her past when her quirky, eighty-six year old grandmother throws the mother of all Thanksgivings to celebrate her recent marriage to 'younger man' Ed Fenwick. But with hometown god and former flame Stanley Fenwick, grandson of the groom, sure to be a part of every event, Paige must now protect her heart as well as retain her sanity, even as her cougar-turned-matchmaker grandmother uses every resource at her disposal to rekindle old fires of passion. 
As Thanksgiving dinner looms, Paige must decide if the sacrifice of a little dignity is worth the New England home and family she has missed so much.

    'Look at me, Nora,' he said softly; and neither of them thought it strange that he should use her Christian name. She turned and looked at him, and what he read in her eyes robbed him for the moment of speech. Then he asked, in a whisper: 'Are you glad I came? Did you expect me?'

In this timeless tale of forbidden love and sacrifice, the beautiful Nora Connor captures the heart of the distinguished Duke Percival at a glittering summer ball. Their passionate connection defies the rigid social boundaries of the time, but while Nora's social-climbing mother sees a golden opportunity, the Duke's formidable family will stop at nothing to keep them apart.
Driven to desperate measures, the lovers marry in secret and exchange a fateful oath - one that will echo through their lives with devastating consequences. As the brutal Boer War calls the Duke to South Africa's battlefields, Nora faces her own desperate fight at home, carrying a secret that will make her an outcast from society. With only Pierre, the Duke's most trusted servant, as her ally, she retreats into exile, each passing day bringing fresh hope and fear about her beloved's fate.
