Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Morren's Winter Is Past is a Regency with a bit of a twist: Lady Althea Breton, who doesn't really need to work but wants to do good, hires on as a nurse for the sickly daughter of Simon Aguilar, a Jew who has "converted" to the Church of England in order to pursue his career in Parliament. To fall in love, both man and woman must overcome their prejudices in this otherwise predictable, though well-written and well-researched, tale of two deeply religious people attempting to help the poor.

Book Description
Against the Backdrop of the
Glittering Ballrooms,
Gritty Factories and Quiet Parlors
of Regency England
Comes a Man's Remarkable Journey
of Love and Faith.
A rising star in Parliament, widower Simon Aguilar needs a reliable woman to care for his gravely ill daughter, Rebecca. He finds an exemplary nurse -- and much more -- in the indomitable Althea Breton.
Raised amid privilege, Althea renounced wealth and social position to serve God, and is reluctant to work for a man who became a Christian only to further his political career. But realizing that all things are possible with God's love, she accepts the position in the Aguilar household.
Despite Simon's skepticism, Althea comforts Rebecca by teaching her about God and salvation. Meanwhile, an attraction grows between the darkly handsome MP and the understated beauty whose integrity and competence win over his entire household. Althea admires Simon's devotion as a father, his sense of justice as a politician and his tenderness as a man, but his antipathy toward her faith divides them. When Simon's world suddenly falls apart, can Althea convince him to open his heart to God's love -- and her own?
