Review
When a wounded man turns up in her barn, Rachel Sparhawk Lindsey has no choice but to help him. He could be anyone-- most likely he is a soldier, an enemy. But Rachel can't let him die. Alone except for her young son Billy, Rachel waits for her unfaithful, drunken husband to return from war. But it's been seventeen months and no word has come from William. In her heart Rachel knows she doesn't love William. But her mind tells her to be faithful and honor his memory until she knows for sure if he's dead or alive. Jamie Ryder, once a Tory ranger, is a wanted man. During a bloody massacre Jamie tried to stop the murder of two children by a Seneca brave. Jamie shot and killed an officer and now there is a price on his head. The horrors of what he witnessed linger as he watches beautiful Rachel Lindsey and Billy. He wants to protect them-- from the Tories, the Indians, even her brother-in-law who threatens her, but Jamie knows it's only a matter of time before he has to leave. Still, there is something comforting about being in a home with a kind, gentle woman and a little boy who looks up to him. Rachel thought she knew men after living with William but Jamie is different. She has heard the rumors of what he has done but she trusts him. He treats Billy like his own son-- far better than William ever did. And whenever she's with him she feels cared for, special. As they come closer to sharing the love in their hearts, secrets and the past threaten to destroy the fragile happiness they have found together. A sweetly told tale by a marvelous author!
