Description
She wants to forget the tragic memories that tie them together.
He wants to tear down the walls that keep them apart.
Marigold Pendleton has always prided herself on her independence. Possessing neither wealth nor great beauty, she has resigned herself to life as a spinster and is determined to look after her own needs. As dressmaker for the village of Roderick Glen, she is known for her loyalty and compassionate nature. Few of the residents would ever guess the truth -- that beneath her sweet spirit, Marigold carries the weight of a dreadful secret and a guilty conscience.
Hadley Stevenson is proud of his position as steward of Cheswick Park, though it often means dealing with the constant drama that haunts the Earl of Rockingham and his family wherever they go. He longs for a wife and family of his own, but his childhood friend, Marigold, has no idea he has been in love with her for years. Despite his best efforts, he is unable to break through the barriers that surround her heart.
When a crisis forces Marigold to rely on Hadley more than she ever has before, she struggles to reconcile her growing feelings for him with the knowledge that he is the only one who knows the truth about the tragic event that has defined her life. As the walls between them finally begin to crumble, can she release the pain of the past to embrace the joy of the future that awaits her?
The second book in the Ladies of Roderick Glen series, The Dressmaker brings to life the continuing stories of the citizens of Roderick Glen as they traverse the rocky pathways that lead to faith, family, forgiveness, and love.
