During the War of 1812, America is experiencing tumultuous times. So is Rose McGuire. After some trauma, she has moved to her aunt and uncle's farm and is trying to forget her traumatizing past. One night that past comes back to haunt her with a vengeance, and a man who is supposed to be her enemy swoops in and rescues her. Alexander Reed is at a crossroads in his life, trying to decide which way to turn. As these two form an unlikely friendship, they try to keep each other and Baltimore safe from a looming British attack.
I thought this was a great book, with lots of details to make the story come to life and characters that you care about. I also liked that the author brought back a character I was intrigued by in Surrender The Heart, Alex Reed. Because he was in that book, he gets into some sticky situations in this one, which kept me on the edge of my seat while I read. Hard to put down, be prepared to stay up reading! :)
