[Touches of Austen 04] • His Irreplaceable Belle

They say time heals all wounds, but can it truly restore two shattered hearts?

Not every father wishes for his daughter to marry a physician. Fredrick “Fritz” Norman discovered that years ago when the father and brother of the lady he loved attempted to destroy him. Since then, he has become a great success in medicine. However, in the affairs of the heart, he has failed miserably to find anyone who can replace his Belle.

Persuaded by the tears of her mother, a young Annabelle “Belle” Chapman once gave up the man she loved. For years, she has regretted that decision. Six years later and still unmarried, her father declares her a spinster and sends her to be a companion to her aunt.

As fate would have it, Belle’s aunt is one of Fritz’s patients, and no amount of persuasion is going to make her willing to give up the best physician in Bath. Belle and Fritz are just going to have to learn to see each other while knowing all the while that they can be nothing more than acquaintances. Or so they think.

However, as Belle and Fritz will discover, a love like theirs can neither be denied nor replaced by another –no matter what obstacles might stand in its way.

His Irreplaceable Belle is the fourth book in Leenie Brown’s Touches of Austen Collection. If you like second chance romances reminiscent of Jane Austen’s Persuasion, then you will love this sweet Regency romance about heartache and longing and a love strong enough to triumph over the agony of the past.
