Third book about the intertwined families at Chadcombe. Lady Olivia Fanton fell in love with Jem Ford when he was nobody with nothing to offer, but he did not speak. Four years later, when Jem has been through Waterloo, has come into an inheritance and is a friend of the Fanton family, he reappears in her life. She feels the same attraction toward him as before, but he's hard to read, and she's being courted by another polished beau, George Manning. That's the plot, but the real story is Olivia coming to realize through her experiences how strong she really is.

Sexual content: Does not go beyond kisses - except that her sister in law gives birth and Olivia and her friend Lizzie help the midwife, with some detail.
