A Friendship In Ruins by Chasity Bowlin (The Life of a Wallflower Series)
Miss Eleanor Harcourt has long accepted her role as her brother’s dependable sister, quietly managing his household while keeping her feelings for his closest friend to herself. Mr. Adrian Grant has always been a confirmed bachelor, and Eleanor never believed he would see her as anything more than his friend’s sensible sibling. When Adrian unexpectedly inherits an entailed estate, duty forces him to seek a wife. Yet every suitable woman he meets falls short when compared to Eleanor’s steady kindness and intelligence.
Adrian might have continued denying the truth if not for a titled suitor who begins courting Eleanor in earnest. Faced with the possibility of losing her, Adrian must confront feelings he has long ignored. In A Friendship in Ruins by Chasity Bowlin, love and loyalty collide as Adrian risks his cherished friendship to claim the woman he can no longer bear to see in another man’s arms.
