Description
When Nelwina Honeycutt is taken to the block to be sold -- a common enough plight for a "troublesome" wife in eighteenth-century England -- she hardly expects to better her situation. The illegitimate child of a nobleman, she can be sold for sixpence. The man who buys her pays a full pound, though -- and seems blase about it! Nelwina did fall and hit her head, but her clothes, her hair, her eyes: everything is unfamiliar. Two hundred years from the date she was born, only one thing is clear: Of the two men before her -- Philip, who claims to be her husband; or Adam, the English lord of Spenceworth manor -- all her heart wants is to be Adam's Spenceworth bride.
