He’s waited too long.
If he confesses now, she might see him as just another fortune hunter.
Yet, he can’t stop loving her.
Mr. Thomas Drake has hidden his deep affection for Penelope since childhood, biding his time until he can provide for her and her family. Until then, he must be content with being her friend, and no more.
For Miss Penelope Fairchild, life has been an endless struggle against financial decline. However, her fortune takes a sudden turn when her late aunt leaves her a substantial inheritance. As whispers of her newfound wealth spread through town, Penelope finds herself thrust into the spotlight. But she is not blind to reality: it is her riches, not her character, that draws adoration.
