Waiting for the Post by Esther Hatch
Now that Harrison Chase has finally made his fortune as a working man, he will risk it all to save his factory workers from starvation. In the middle of his charge to reverse the Corn Laws, his housekeeper helpfully mails a letter she finds languishing amongst his things. A six-year-old love letter. With no other choice, he rushes back to his childhood home on Christine Stone's estate. If he can't get his hands on that letter before she does, Christine will discover what a pitiful and pretentious fool he had been. The one thing he hadn't counted on was the mail being delayed. Now Harrison must decide which is worse-waiting with Christine as he not-so-slowly falls back in love with her, or leaving, knowing once she reads his letter he can never return.
