A Proper Companion

By: Louise M. Gouge

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Anna Newfield’s father dies, she loses her paltry inheritance, her future, even her home. Cast out of the vicarage where she was born, she must depend upon a stranger, a dragoon officer who has brought news of her soldier brother. Major Grenville offers her a position as his mother’s companion, but will the Dowager Lady Greystone accept Anna or cast her out, as well? And how can Anna keep her heart from attaching itself to the handsome, heroic major who has rescued her from utter destitution? After being wounded in the American war, cavalry officer Major Edmond Grenville longs for peace at home. But his mother demands that he must heal quickly and return to service so he can make a name for himself. She also forbids him to develop feelings for the poor girl he had the temerity to foist upon her as a companion. Decorated for valor on the battlefield, can Edmond find the courage to defy his formidable mother and follow the leading of his heart…straight to the lovely Miss Anna Newfield.
