No Time (Spirit Creek Series)

Raised in an orphanage, Ellie Thomas worked hard to earn the prestigious position of Spirit Creek’s schoolteacher. With her life in pandemonium and her reputation in jeopardy, Ellie agrees to a marriage of convenience, but she soon discovers her new husband isn’t the man she thought him to be. Despite her attraction to Robert Rutherford, she considers the local lawyer only a friend who has stood by her during difficult times.

Robert Rutherford has loved Ellie from afar for years, and he can’t imagine why she married a total stranger. When Ellie arrives at his law office, he’s dumbfounded by her scandalous request: an immediate divorce from her husband who has gone missing. When Robert is arrested by Pinkerton detectives, he finds his own life in chaos. Will Ellie believe he’s innocent?

Can she find the happiness she only ever dreamed about? Or, yet again, has a man made a fool of her?
