Love and survival in the shadow of Waterloo . . .
Wearied by his years as a British intelligence officer, Simon Duval
resigns his commission after Napoleon's abdication. Hoping to find new
meaning in his life, he returns to England, where he discovers his
cousin's widow, Suzanne Duval, the Comtesse de Chambron. Working as a
seamstress, living in reduced circumstances, Suzanne has had a life as
complicated as Simon's. While both believe they are beyond love, their
sympathetic bond leads him to propose a marriage of companionship, and
Suzanne accepts.
She didn't want or expect a true marriage, but as Suzanne joins Simon in
a search for his long missing foster brother, warmth and caring begin to
heal both their scars--and a powerful passion sparks between them. Then
news from France threatens to disrupt their happiness. Napoleon has
escaped from Elba and Wellington personally asks Simon to help prevent
another devastating war. Only this time, Simon does not go into danger
alone. He and Suzanne will face deadly peril together, and pray that
love will carry them through . . .
