Awesome book! I truly enjoyed this book and was glad it was a tad bit longer than the average smut book. This author did an amazing job of portraying her characters as real people. The hero in this book is sinfully delicious, but believes he is hideously scarred from his campaigns against the French. Ms. Sharon does an excellent job showing his weaknesses and insecurities without emasculating him. For once, the hero is more three dimensional than in your typical smut book. The heroine is spirited, but has a big heart and generous nature who loves the hero and tries to save him from himself. I love this kind of heroine, instead of the fiesty, prickly type that is always fighting the hero and/or their passion. Best of all, this is a story about LOVE. There is not much mystery, or danger, or intrigue. It is simply about two people trying to find each other. Beautiful and well written...I highly recommend it. I will be looking for more by this author!
