The Hills of Home — Helen Bianchin

Her homecoming was bittersweet

Shelley was grieved to return to her plantation home to find her beloved stepfather desperately ill, but delighted to see Mitch Ballantyne, his son, again.

She had always adored Mitch, but so did a hundred other girls. Therefore, when he suddenly proposed marriage, no one was more surprised than Shelley.

But soon it became apparent that Mitch was only fulfilling the dearest wish of his dying father. How Shelley longed for him to have another motive!

Hero: Mitch Ballantyne
