Love in High Places

Lou Morgan, the daughter of a wealthy American oil man had it all – now all she wanted was a husband to provide her with a notable title and comfortable life. She travels to Europe with her friend, the plain Valentine Brown, and meets the man of his dreams at an Austrian winter resort. Alex von Felden is a baron, no less, and perfect in every way. The problem is, he falls for Lou’s friend instead of her. Can Lou still persuade Alex to marry her? The gripping love tale set in picturesque Europe is written by Jane Beaufort, a pseudonym of the beloved English romance writer Ida Pollock.
