    About this ebook

    Ryleigh D'Artois attends the wedding of the season. Maybe even the decade.

    A wedding held at a plantation house on the untamed Mississippi River. Civilization encroaching on the wilderness. It would be an adventure for a weekend, but certainly not permanently. 

    However, she finds out something she never expected. Something that changes everything.

    Would her first social engagement be her last? 

    A standalone historical romance story set in 1761.
