Letter Tree

Isaac Campbell and Laura Bradshaw are the heirs to Buffalo's rival shoe companies, and they hope to build a future together despite a bitter family feud. The year is 1924. Laura, who loves stories that end in happiness, has spent the seven years since her mother's death largely shut away from the world. Her domineering father has little interest in her hopes and devotes himself to undermining the Campbell Shoe Company. Laura's one comfort is a secret correspondent with whom she exchanges letters.

Isaac Campbell is one of the city's most eligible bachelors, yet no woman has ever stirred his interest. His thoughts keep returning to an oak tree in the Buffalo Zoo, the spot where he trades letters with his mysterious pen pal. She is one of the few bright spots in a life darkened by his father's relentless hatred of the Bradshaws. Isaac is beginning to suspect that this hatred touches his own life more deeply than he ever imagined.

When Laura's father arranges for her to marry a prominent local businessman, she decides to pursue the only chance she sees at freedom. Isaac refuses to believe their story must end in heartbreak. He senses that the Bradshaw-Campbell rivalry hides a deeper story, and he is determined to uncover the truth beneath it, since that truth may be the only thing that can bridge the divide between him and the woman whose words have won his heart.
