CALVIN, JUNE — Abducting Amy

New York, Signet. 2003, First Pbk. (ISBN: 0451209222) Pbk. Book, Amy Armstrong doesn't enjoy being sold off to a prosperous farmer like a prized cow at a county fair. But what choice other than marriage has she when he's the only man willing to take in a woman with no dowry and a dependant mother? Certainly no one as beautiful as Amy wants to be plunged into abject poverty. Far from being left with no options, Amy indeed has a way out that she could never have imagined. Even if it is by force. A secret suitor with a secret past has her all to himself in the comfort of his carriage. Now, a simple trip to London is about to be delayed by a passionate man with a team of horses, a whip, and an irreversible mission-a savior who's whisking Amy away on the ride of a lifetime, with a slight detour of the heart. Very Good.
