But he can't stop thinking about her twin sister, the headstrong, curvy & altogether unconventional Olivia? Olivia is betrothed to another man, but their improper

- but it may already be too late. This book has 388 pages & is 17.7cm x 10.7cm x 2.6cm

A breathtaking & truly gripping read for fans of the Tom Thorne series.
