A Visit from Sir NicholasAfter ten years Elizabeth discovers that the inheritance she has successfully managed was never hers to control; it has always belonged to Nicholas, the man who rebuffed her love ten years ago. But running her life is not part of Nicholas's plan. Recognizing she has grown into a capable and beautiful woman, he swears he will not rest until she accepts that most precious gift of all--the gift of love. |
