Now Winnie finds herself at the mercy of three madcap matrons, determined that love will find a way. Despite multiple misunderstandings, a horrid bully/gossip, and a woman she's sure her intended will marry instead of her, Winnie discovers some things about herself, and finds that love really does find its way …
