He just won the lady of his dreams.
He just didn’t realize that meant literally.
Ryan Colby had one dream and one dream only for as long as he could remember. He would sail up the St. Lawrence River to the sea beyond and explore far off places and oceans. So when he wins the Lady Evelina, a private schooner, in a poker game he believes his dream is about to be realized. However, he soon discovers he had been duped into wagering on the lady, Evelina, instead.
Evelina Hepworth was the youngest of six daughters and the last to become betrothed. As beautiful as she was, there were no prospective suitors interested in a woman suffering from schizophrenia. Fearing everything from staircases to the great outdoors, she refuses to even step outside her home. A challenge for Ryan who must convince the woman to consider him a potential husband in order to secure his claim on the Lady Evelina.
