Annis's life as the daughter of the Rectory was a busy and happy one, certainly not lacking in love – but she loved Jake Royale even more than she loved her family. When he proposed to her she didn't hesitate, though she knew he didn't love her – he had said from the start that he didn't think that love was necessary to make a marriage work. But even if she could accept his lack of feeling for her, would Jake ever admit Annis into his life?
