Her brother’s best friend is the only man who’s ever made her feel safe. Too bad he’s completely off-limits.

Shy, rule-following Alice Loughton has adored Frederick Kempton for as long as she can remember. He’s the only man she can talk to without trembling, the only one who doesn’t frighten her—and the only one she wants to marry.

There’s just one problem: her brother. No one will ever be good enough for his baby sister, least of all his irresponsible best friend. With more suitable suitors ready to line up, there’s no way he’d ever approve of a match between Alice and Freddie. And obedient Alice has never dared to defy him.

Until now.

For the first time in her life, Alice is ready to break the rules—and Freddie has never been able to say no to her. Caught between loyalty and longing, does he dare risk his oldest friendship for the chance to win the woman he’s secretly loved for years?

This forbidden love, friends-to-lovers story is a sweet historical romance with swoony kisses, longing glances, and zero spice. Expect tears, laughter, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Read it as a stand-alone or as part of the Victorian Grand Tour series. Victorian Historical Fiction Historical Clean & Wholesome

This book is dumb. The heroine cries at the drop of a dime. Also, the hero and heroine are at a nursing school in front of the entire class being instructed on how to kiss.
