    Summary

    He tries to kiss her. He always does. Elizabeth turns her head so his lips meet her cheek, and the softest of sighs escapes Phillip’s lips as he understands that this is not about romance, not about a husband and wife loving each other so much they want a child. This is business, another mission; it is not personal.

    Just another North & South continuation. As much as I love the train station scene, I always found the book's ending to be more believable for the time period. This work merges elements from both the mini-series and the book.
