The vicar’s son and the draper’s daughter fought against all odds to be together, and with just days until their wedding, both are ignoring the cracks in their relationship. But a storm is coming. One that will shatter everything.

Life hasn’t been easy for Obadiah Howard, especially not after that misstep at Oxford which nearly obliterated his chances of ever joining the church. Added to that, he fell in love with the draper’s daughter, Eliza Hill. But a miracle revived his dreams of having a curacy and his strict father allowed his betrothal to Eliza. Only, what if there was no miracle? What if all of Obadiah’s bright future is built on a lie?

Eliza Hill never expected a gentleman to pay her court, let alone ask for her hand in marriage. With their wedding day less than a fortnight away, life is an impossible dream come true. Although, it would be nice if Obadiah called her Eliza instead of the more genteel Elisabeth, and she finds the rigors of acting like a perfect lady stifling. But, surely, being married to the man she loves will be worth wearing a mask for the rest of her life.

When the fierce storms of life break over their world, the cracks don’t just show in their relationship. They shatter. Can two hearts torn apart by pride find their way back to each other?

In this Broader Regency, reverse rags-to-riches, interclass romance novella, you'll find faith, a clean and wholesome romance, and a happy ending. While this book doesn't feature Jane Austen, it is set the year she turned 19. Ever wonder what England was like when Austen was a teen? Read a Heart to Treasure to find out!
