Books like Counterfeit courtship by Christina Miller
Colonel Graham Talbot arrives home from the Confederate fight, only to find his eyes pursued by several marriage‑seeking town girls. With a stepmother and orphaned niece to care for, he refuses to wed. Ellie Anderson, his next‑door neighbor, once loved the soldier and now offers a fake courtship to deter their admirers.
Ellie, whose rough upbringing left her fiercely independent, also worries about the future of her plantation. She believes the pretense will keep Graham at home and preserve her property, but the plan threatens to unravel. As the faux romance deepens, Ellie must decide whether to safeguard her estate or embrace a growing, genuine love.
The novel explores themes of sacrifice, faith, and the struggle to balance personal freedom with duty during the post‑war era.
