This review is from: Winds of Betrayal (Southern Angels, No 2) (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was about Victorine LaGrande, a 17 year old Creole girl living in New Orleans during the Civil War. Victorine's father has arranged for her to marry Andre Valmont, who shares the LaGrande's Creole heritage. But then Victorine sees Andre with another woman, and falls in love with Brent, a Confederate doctor who is also an American. Victorine's father would forbid their courtship. Will Victorine follow her heritage or her heart?

After the fall of Fort Sumter, Victorine LaGrande is brought home to New Orleans from boarding school, and while she misses her friends Elizabeth and Rosamund, she is glad to be home in the French Quarter. She is more than happy to meet the man that her father has picked for her to marry, Andre Valmont, the son of another family her family knows. He's smart, handsome, charming and he showers Victorine with lots of attention. While Victorine likes Andre and enjoys his attention, she starts to have doubts of his faithfulness when she sees him with another woman on his arm, and she meets another man, an American, Dr. Bret Whitman who makes her feel like she never has with Andre.
But who is this woman and what does she mean to Andre? And what of Dr. Whitman, will Victorine do as her father wishes or risk herself in something new? Book two in the series, but the first is still my favorite. In this book we get to see what it's like for Victorine at home, we get to see her start off as a pampered Creole daughter listening to her father and grow into the woman that she was meant to be, one that makes her own mind up and lives her life as she wants.

Prim and proper Victorine LaGrande, a Creole girl of 17 years, is all set in an arranged marriage with the breathtakinly handsome Andre Valmont. But things have a way of changing during wartime. Victorine spots Andre walking arm in arm with another woman. Then, one Mardi Gras and a sprained ankle later, Victorine is the one who feels like breaking off the engagement- she has met one Dr. Brent Whitman, an American. Unfortunatly for both of them, he is also someone who is a completly innapropriate match for Victorine- in her father's eyes.
