Summary
After surviving the Napoleonic Wars, Sir Benedict Harper is struggling to move on, his body and spirit in need of a healing touch. Never does Ben imagine that hope will come in the form of a beautiful woman who has seen her own share of suffering. After the lingering death of her husband, Samantha McKay is at the mercy of her oppressive in-laws - until she plots an escape to distant Wales to claim a house she has inherited. Being a gentleman, Ben insists that he escort her on the fateful journey. Ben wants Samantha as much as she wants him, but he is cautious. What can a wounded soul offer any woman? Samantha is ready to go where fate takes her, to leave behind polite society and even propriety in her desire for this handsome, honorable soldier. But dare she offer her bruised heart as well as her body? The answers to both their questions may be found in an unlikely place: in each other's arms.

Just like all other books by this author, this one shows real love for both the genre and the time period. The narrator is excellent, I love her!

This wasn't my cup of tea, but Balogh seems to be a pretty good writer, so I may have to give one of her other titles a whirl before I give up on her entirely. The style was a little too self-consciously old-fashioned and "arch" for me. I get the author is trying to capture the style of an earlier era, but it sounded clunky, and the narrator's slightly pretentious tone didn't help. Maybe I'll give another one of her books a try to see if it's any better.
