Fortune's Bride

Description for FORTUNE'S BRIDE by Joy Gardner:

She was torn by her love for one man and her debt to another.

"BE CAREFUL OF WHAT YOU WISH FOR,"

Maura's father had warned his lovely blond-haired daughter. But in 1890, Maura found a way to escape from the slums of New York to the palaces of Newport. When Peter Van Diver asked for her hand in marriage, she accepted.

As a new life beckoned to her, as she walked down the aisle to join her future husband, her eyes were caught and held by a man she had never seen before. But whom her heart recognized instantly.
