Excerpt:
Jane’s heart
ached to see such deep anguish in his gaze. There was no rage, no anger, not
even a trace of the moroseness she had seen so many times in his eyes during
the preceding months. He stood in front of her as the true, loyal, and honest
man she’d always loved and admired.
All the
months she fought her feelings for him and now he wished to be with her. Tears
escaped and rolled over her cheeks. He brushed his thumbs under her eyes, and
it took every ounce of her strength not to collapse against him and damn the
right and wrong of her yearning.
“Jane, please
understand how hard it is for me to see you cry and not fix things to be with
you overnight. What is starting between us, what I am feeling, cannot be
ignored.”
Jane took a
strengthening breath. “I am not the same woman I was a year, even six months
ago, Matthew. I’ve changed. You’ve changed. Neither of us should rush headlong
into the idea of us being together when there are so many other people
involved.”
He frowned.
“Like Elizabeth?”
She nodded.
“And the villagers. And for me, the children at the boardinghouse. I can’t stop
my dream to do good now that I have found the courage to pursue it.”
“Everything
will work out. I will ensure it.”
He smiled
softly, the gentle determination in his gaze seeping deep inside her until
impassioned hope squeezed like a vise around her weakening heart.
He brushed
the curls from her temple and pressed his lips to her forehead. “I have been
blind. My sense of pride and loyalty to my father, a man who thought of me as
little more than a cog in his ambitious wheel, has meant I wasted two years
with a woman I tried hard to make happy. I refuse to waste any more of my
life.”
His words
twisted and tore at Jane’s heart. The last thing she wanted him to do was act
impulsively and jeopardize anything that might be good for the people of
Biddestone. “So what are we to do now?”
Teatime and Books Review:
Her One True Love by Rachel Brimble is such a powerful and deeply passionate romance. A story of heartache and love lost but yet love finds the two birds again in a most unusual way. We are first met by Jane and her sister taking a walk through the woods of their small village town. They run into Matthew Cleaves whom Jane has secretly loved for some time. However, Matthew gave his heart to another and married two years ago leaving Jane heartbroken and hopeless. Now, Matthew is the heartbroken one, having been left by his wife who cheated on him and he walks through the town in such a somber state. Jane still hopes he'll confess his love for her but alas, he does not on that day in the woods. On that day, Jane finally makes up her mind to head to Bath and start her life anew without Matthew Cleaves and move on in hopes of finding her one true love just as her sister had. So off to Bath she goes into a whole new life... but will her heart find another one true love? Or will the dashingly beautiful Matthew Cleaves regain his place in society and realize who he's truly loved all along?
This is my first book to read from author Rachel Brimble and I must say I'm very impressed. Her writing style is beautiful and has a poetic flow to it. In Her One True Love, she weaves a tale of deep woe and sorrow yet romance and an undying love captures her characters and the story takes on a whole new meaning. I highly recommend this book for any romantic at heart!
