She Can't Forget Him…
Jane
Charlotte Danes has loved the squire of her idyllic country town for as long as
she can remember. He is good, kind, and alluring beyond words… and he chose to
marry another. Tired of dwelling on her futile longings, Jane plans a move to
Bath, where she dreams of a new beginning. But the man who has so imprisoned
her heart is only a few steps behind…
He Can't Let Her Go…
Until now,
Matthew Cleaves has endeavored to meet the responsibilities of his position
with dignity and good spirits--including his dutiful marriage. But when his
wife leaves him for another man, Matthew is at last free to pursue his one true
love. Only one vital question remains: will the captivating, stubborn,
beautiful Jane allow him the challenge, and the pleasure, of winning her
back?..
Jane
Danes has been in love Squire Matthew Cleaves forever, but he broke her heart
when he married another women. But less than 2 years later Elizabeth Cleaves
runs off with her lover, leaving Matthew to face the humiliation alone.
But
Jane is still broken hearted and has decided leave Biddestone and head to Bath;
to make a clean break and to give her life a purpose, but Matthew doesn't want
her to go! And continues to make excuses to stay in Bath with her, despite his
responsibilities back in Biddestone. But when love starts to bloom between Jane
and Matthew, you are left wondering if their love will conquer all?
I
had mixed feelings on the beginning of this book; I was taken aback by the suicidal thoughts of
the character Jane at the very beginning of the book, I thought it brought the
book down too low in the beginning and I found it hard to relate to the
characters. Other than that I found the book her enjoyable.
I
give Her One True Love 3 stars

Matthew turned and faced Jane. “When
are you leaving for the city?”
She took another step back, her gaze
darting over his face. “The day after tomorrow. Why?”
“Because I will escort you. We can
travel together in my carriage.”
“No, I do not need your––”
“I will be going anyway. I planned
to visit some contacts in the city in the hope of securing guaranteed trade for
Biddestone in the coming year. It seems unnecessary for us to make the trip
separately when I have a carriage plenty big enough for us both.”
“There is absolutely no need.
Jeannie will be coming with me.”
“My offer still stands.”
She glared. “It’s my intention to
start on the path of independence, of finding out what the world has to offer
me on my own merit. I will hardly be carving out my own path when at the first
step from my home, I lean on you.”
“You are being stubborn.”
She pulled back her shoulders. “And
you are not?”
The longer he looked at her, the more
Matthew saw the quiet beauty he’d desperately tried to ignore. He took a
steadying breath. “Please, Jane. Let me escort you to Bath.”
The seconds passed, but Matthew held
his tongue. It was imperative she spoke next, that she understood he didn’t
mean to bully her but wanted to ensure her safety to a city ravaged by danger,
as much as opportunity.
She sighed. “Fine. On one
condition.”
He held her gaze. “Which is?”
Her eyes softened, slowly lighting
with mischief. “You smile. Now. You smile at me like you did before she left.”
Heat rose to his face. “You want me
to smile?”
“Yes. Smile for me, Matthew.”
Empathy and passion swirled in eyes,
but they also bore a deep, painful awareness that scratched hard over his
heart. The longer he stared, the more he wanted to make her happy.
He smiled, his gaze on hers…and was
surprised to find the trade no effort at all.
