Her dowry changed her prospects, but only heartbreak could teach her the difference between fortune hunters and true love.
Charlotte Kendall doesn't think she has a romantic bone in her body, but she agrees to let her sister help her find a match. What she doesn't know is, Dorothea's wealthy husband has boosted Charlotte's modest dowry by six-fold. Robert Morton, a neighbor who is desperate to keep his debts a secret, learns of the large dowry and begins to court Charlotte. His younger brother, Frederick, loves Charotte for herself, not her dowry. Will Charlotte make the right choice with her heart before it is too late?
