Hartfords
Katherine Spearing
In order to prove to her family's nemesis that luck has nothing to do with love, a young woman races against the clock to find husbands for her four sisters by the end of the year. But playing with hearts and futures proves to be far more complicated than anyone expects.
Is love a choice or the work of fate?
Or just the force behind a sister’s scheming?
In a world of propriety and convention, the five Hartford sisters are anything but conventional. So unconventional, they’ll likely never attract husbands, ensuring they’ll be a disgrace to their family and community by dying spinsters.
Then, the eldest sister, Samantha, defies the odds and secures a husband—a wealthy and handsome husband no less. The Hartford’s biggest critic, Daniel Copeland, predicts no other man would ever be as foolish.To end his criticism, Samantha and her husband make a pact with Daniel, stating he must end his verbal onslaught of their family if every sister is engaged by the end of the year.
Thus a game of matchmaking ensues—countered by Daniel’s sabotage—and the quest for love becomes a very time-sensitive race.
