"Melinda Colson has been waiting months for Evan, the assistant gamekeeper at the
Bridal Veil Island resort, to propose. Without an offer of marriage, she must
return to Cleveland with the family she works for as a lady's maid. Evan
isn't afraid of hard work, and he hopes to be promoted soon. He wants to marry
Melinda--but not until he's sure he can support her and a family. Letters
strengthen their romance until a devastating storm strikes the island. With no
word from Evan, Melinda knows she must journey back to Bridal Veil in search of
her beloved. But the hurricane isn't the last calamity to shake up Bridal
Veil. Melinda finds a new job on the island, but still no offer of marriage
comes her way. Has she given her heart to the wrong person? Will she ever find a
man to love and cherish?" (Publisher's Description)
This is the second book in the Bridal Veil series, but it can easily be read as a stand alone. I really enjoyed reading this book. Melinda is impatient and impetuous and often acts before thinking things completely through. Evan is more practical, desiring to be able to provide for them before asking Melinda to marry him. There are also a few other subplots that add a fullness to a wonderfully written story. The descriptions of the island were so captivating that I could almost picture it. I cannot wait for the final book in the series!
