Anne's father, the sword-flourishing, full regimental-wearing Colonel, is unwell. But the only real battle is Anne's-living as a gentleman's daughter on a pauper's means. When newcomer Robert Weston visits their cottage while inspecting his new estate, Anne accidentally topples into his arms from a ladder. The Colonel, mistaking the scene, demands honor for Anne and a hasty marriage takes place to calm him. But the Colonel's recounting of events does painful damage to Anne's reputation. As Anne and Robert struggle with the situation, admiration grows. Could a real marriage cure the heartache caused by a false one? This tender story of the importance of trust in faith and love will satisfy Lori's millions of fans-and win new ones.
