The Wine Merchant - First love - Prelude

As the only daughter of Master Anderton, Susanne has always expected her marriage to be a matter of negotiations, not feelings. Her father is a merchant, a man who's made his fortune on good bargains, and his beloved daughter isn't going to be an exception. Susanne knows it, of course, and she doesn't allow herself to wait for love - but has anyone ever managed to escape it?

A man catches her eye, his witty compliments and warm touches catch her heart. Susanne has never known the feeling of butterflies in her stomach - but with Edward Williams, it seems that they will never leave her body.

He makes her giddy. He treats her with care. He may not be the richest of her suitors - but he has enough dedication and courage to make a name for himself even in London. Edward is everything Susanne has ever dreamed of, and even when their engagement is finally settled, it doesn't feel real.

Isn't it a living dream to wake up as Mistress Williams?
