In 2 Mar 1810 Miranda Cheever writes her first entry in her journal "Today, I fell in love" after Lord Nigel "Turner" Bevelstoke told her to keep a diary so that one day when she is a beauty she will know how inane people especially children can be. He kisses her hand as if she was a beautiful lady before he bids adieu. The ten year old believes the viscount, but also knows he is one day destined to be her soul mate.
Almost a decade later, Miranda is as beautiful as Nigel had predicted. She has never forgotten the nice viscount and is excited when they meet for the first time since he boosted her confidence with his kind words. However, Nigel is not the same amiable caring person she remembers; instead he is an acrimonious grump grieving a tragic loss. When they make love, she thinks forever while he thinks an error. However, when she becomes pregnant they marry, but Miranda knows that unless she can heal him with her love, they are doomed to an unhappy existence.
Miranda steals the show in this wonderful regency romance with her diary entries over the years as she continued her dream that one day her prince Nigel will come for her. When he does, he is a broken person; no longer the kind hero who took some time with a distraught little girl. Readers will enjoy this fine historical as Miranda's preadolescent fantasy turns into an adult reality if her love can heal Nigel's soul.
