The Poet Bride
Baltimore, 1901: Aspiring poet Elly Owen is eighteen when her family takes on a boarder in the flat above their shop. Their new tenant, dockworker Ben Porter, is the muse of Elly’s dreams: he’s charming, masculine, and mysterious. The two embark upon a whirlwind forbidden romance as secret lovers—until Ben abruptly disappears, leaving Elly reeling and disconsolate.
When a hidden betrayal surfaces, Elly resolves to go west to find Ben. Chaperoned by Jonathan, a young seminarian with hopes to marry Elly, she ventures to Maumee, Ohio in search of the truth. What she discovers is a life far removed from her romantic expectations, and a rocky relationship that just might rewrite everything she assumed about love.
The Poet Bride is a character-driven period piece set in turn-of-the-last century America. The narrator’s candid examination of marriage, perseverance, and commitment to her heart at all costs will charm readers of historical romance and women’s fiction alike.
