How would you feel if your aunt started dating your fiancé? While that may not be exactly what is happening, that is exactly what it feels like to Cora. She receives a letter in the mail from her eccentric Aunt Davina asking Bert, Cora's fiancé, to join her in a string of upcoming social engagements. Davina wants to get to know Bert before her niece ties the knot with him. Obviously, Cora is shocked, but eventually goes along with the idea because she thinks it will make her family closer in the long run. Getting Bert to agree to it is a more difficult matter. But what Cora doesn't anticipate is the jealousy and turmoil she feels as her aunt and her fiancé get closer. You know the saying "two's company, but three's a crowd?" Well, unfortunately, Cora knows that all too well.
Promises We Keep is a book about family and love and how the two sometimes get tangled together.
