About this ebook
He loved her tooâand left believing she deserved better. Christopher Hurst, Earl of Lockhart, walked away from Englandâand Julietâhoping distance would dull what he couldn't say aloud. He feared she saw him only as a friend, and he couldn't bear the risk of being found wanting. But now, summoned home by Grandma Edie, he returns with a heart still full of her.
They both loved. They both feared. And nowâperhapsâthey can hope. As Juliet and Christopher cross paths once more, the past resurfaces in gentle glances and cautious conversation. And in the quiet between them, love waitsânot in grand declarations, but in small, brave moments. Because sometimes the only way forward is to speak the words you once swallowed... and see whatâs still possible.
If youâve walked through heartbreak and still believe in joy, even quietly, this story is here to walk beside you.

About the author
đ About Me
Hi, Iâm Bree Wolfâa USA Today bestselling author, former academic, and life-long lover of stories. I studied English and Specialized Translation, wandered the halls of universities, spending more years than I should have trying to be reasonable.
Eventually, that quiet, persistent voice in my head said: Itâs time to write. Iâve since published over fifty historical romances, each one stitched together from pieces of my own heart: doubts, regrets, fears, and messy, hopeful dreams.
I love chocolate (especially when chapters get emotional), cry far too easily at my keyboard, and have a deep spiritual bond with cats⌠which is tragically one-sided, as Iâm terribly allergic. A lifelong heartbreak, truly.
đ About What I Write
I write love storiesânot the tidy kind with perfect timing and easy resolution.
My stories are about the hearts that ache a little louder, fall a little later, and carry more than they ever expected to. Youâll meet heroines whoâve been hurt, heroes who protect with patience, and love that heals in slow, steady pulses.
Whether set in Englandâs ballrooms, Scotlandâs wild highlands, or time-tossed ruins, these are journeys of emotional courage. Theyâre layered, sincere, and full of the kind of hope you find after everything else. My romances arenât escapeâtheyâre refuge.
â¤ď¸ About Why I Write
At their core, my books are love lettersâto anyone whoâs ever doubted they were enough, struggled to be seen, or wondered if healing would ever come. I draw from personal experience, yesâbut mostly I write for connection. For restoration. For the reader flipping pages late into the night, whispering please let them be okay.
My settings shiftâRegency England, Scottish Highlands, sometimes a little magicâbut the heartbeat stays the same: tenderness. Bravery. Love that doesnât fix you, but walks with you while you become who you were meant to be.
And if any part of my stories finds a place in your own⌠then Iâve written what I was meant to.
