Synopsis

Lessons of Love. Sir John Melton was handsome, reserved, and formidably rich. When he offered to marry charming Ann, daughter of an impoverished country doctor, she reluctantly accepted. She would be able to keep her motherless family together. Her only marriage vow was to make Sir John, comfortable, to try to keep him from loneliness. So she entered his opulent, alien world to face a disapproving mother-in-law and the mockery of a jealous beauty. As Ann's kindness and understanding altered the sophisticated lives around her, she still did not understand the tumult in her heart or what astonishing lessons she had to learn... about radiant love!
