About this ebook

 A grieving widow comes face-to-face with her all-too-alive husband in this enchanting Regency novella.

Her husband lost in the war, Nicolina Callison spent a year grieving for the love of her life. Grief that gripped her until the day her husband walked in front of her on a London street. 

Alive. Healthy. Strong. And walking into a gambling hall, of all things. In that moment, Nicolina’s grief turned into blinding rage.

Captain Gareth Callison had thought he had hid himself well enough from life—well enough from his wife. But he had miscalculated, and now he had a dagger aimed directly at his head. A dagger tip he knew he had rightly earned by abandoning his wife.

One abandoned wife. One rogue soldier. And the twist of fate that can bring them back together, if they dare to allow it.

Ratings and reviews

In this most unusual Regency romance, the grieving widow has skills that would be the envy of any woman scorned! From the opening sentence of the first chapter, the reader is taken by surprise and as more secrets are revealed the surprises just keep on coming. There is no accounting for the damage done by war to the men fighting them, and Jared deals with his wounded body and mind in a way that begs explanation, but one can understand that the longer he put off dealing with the reality of life, the worse the situation would be. Nicolina on the other hand, has every right to her fury when she discovers that her deceased husband is alive and well and walking the streets of London. I love the introduction of Logan's character and am looking forward to reading more about him. There appears to be some confusion as the blurb on the book speaks of Captain Gareth Callison, however the advance reader copy that I received gives his name as Jared. Nevertheless, he is an interesting hero who redeems himself and there is hope for the restoration of his marriage to the feisty Nicolina. I received a copy of this book as a gift and this is my voluntary and honest review.

What can I say about this novella? Amazing! First word that comes to mind. Truly I have loved everything that has been written by this author and this was no exception. Nicolina Callison was heartsick. Her husband Gareth, had died in the war over a year ago, but she would never stop grieving, such was her intense love. Imagine though, one day she sees him in the flesh walking into a gambling hall seeming all in one piece? Rage overtook her, which was really hurt and disbelief that he was alive and had basically abandoned her and their marriage. There were such intense emotions in this story that you could feel the grief and love that they both had for each other. They were fated to come back together, but it was a journey with a lot of suspense and unanswered questions finally coming to light. This kept me on the edge of my seat and engaged me in their story. I am really looking forward to the stories of the other secondary characters, especially Logan. A must read!!

The folly of men and the way their minds work!!! So much heartache and loss all due to imagined fears men create in their minds in regards to the women they love. Thank goodness women have common sense and can set their men straight and get back to the good things in life. LOVE the story line - love the characters. Again, a strong female who can hold her own, finds the man who can love her - if only he didn't get in the way of himself!!!! Totally enjoyed the book - can't wait for more in this series!!!!
