Focused on a career in medicine and not on romance, Willa Duvall is thrown slightly off course during the summer of 1859 when she discovers a never-opened love letter in a crack of her old writing desk. Compelled to find the passionate soul who penned it and the person who never received it, she takes a job as a nurse at the seaside estate of Crestwicke Manor.

Everyone at Crestwicke has feelings—mostly negative ones—about the man who wrote the letter, but he seems to have disappeared. With plenty of enticing clues but few answers, Willa's search becomes even more complicated when she misplaces the letter and it passes from person to person in the house, each finding a thrilling or disheartening message in its words.

Laced with mysteries large and small, this romantic Victorian-era tale of love lost, love deferred, and love found is sure to delight.

Public Service Announcement from Willa Duvall,

protagonist of The Love Note by Joanna Davidson Politano

Men are quick to propose to Willa Duvall, but do they know her at all? She’s more than her father’s able assistant in his clinic—more than the average hopeful romantic. Willa would like to pass these facts along to any men who might take an interest in her in the future, in an effort to weed out the ones who have no idea what they’re getting into.

Top 5 things that might surprise you about me:

⦁ As a child, I socked a bully in the nose. I may have been quiet, but I couldn’t stand by while he bullied the dearest person I know for a stutter. The little ingrate dragged his governess all the way to the barn to point me out as the culprit for his “broken” nose (which was actually just bloodied), but I didn’t get in trouble. She took one look at me and boxed the boy’s ears for lying.

⦁ I won’t be home to make you dinner every night. Not if there are lives to save. There are precious few doctors to look after the unfortunates in this world, and if they need me, so be it; you can make your own lamb stew.

⦁ Conversations with me may involve germ theories and infectious bacteria. If that doesn’t fascinate you, I probably won’t either.

⦁ I’m wild as a stallion, so expect to give me my head now and again. I have a lot of strength and I need to use it.

⦁ I have a lot of opinions and energy and a great amount of ambition. And even though I’m prickly toward men at times, I secretly—very secretly—long to fall in love with a man who surprises and impresses me with each layer I peel back.

Joanna Davidson Politano is the award-winning author of Lady Jayne Disappears and A Rumored Fortune. She loves tales that capture the colorful, exquisite details in ordinary lives and is eager to hear anyone's story.

She lives with her husband and their two kids in a house in the woods near Lake Michigan. You can find her at www.jdpstories.com.
