The Way Home

By Chance, Megan

Publishers Summary:
Beautiful Eliza Beaudry is determined to escape her parents' life of poverty as sharecroppers in the cotton fields of Texas. When her father insists that she marry a neighboring bachelor who she doesn't love, Eliza is forced to take a desperate step: she gives her virtue to traveling gambler Cole Wallace in hopes that he will rescue her from an impoverished life. But Cole has no plans to marry Eliza, and he leaves without even a goodbye. Two months later, Eliza finds herself alone and pregnant, with a father that insists on tracking down Cole to arrange a shotgun wedding. Cole turns to his younger brother Aaron to save him from the marriage, and Aaron, who feels indebted to Cole, reluctantly agrees. When faced with only one option, Eliza agrees to the union with Aaron, only to discover that he is the husband of her dreams--shy Aaron loves her deeply and passionately. Author Megan Chance has once again created characters with a depth of emotion that will move readers and remind them of all the wonderful reasons for reading romance novels.
