If Wishes Were Kisses — Barbara Miller

Lieutenant Colin Barclay thinks he has no future -- until his brother George dragoons him into offering for Elizabeth Mortimer, so George can marry her younger sister. But Elizabeth sees no need to marry and plans to remain on her father's estate to run the stud farm. As Colin attempts to woo her, he discovers how courageous and competent she is, just as his devotion makes Elizabeth question what she thought she'd always wanted.
