Summary

A tortured hero. A lady with the heart of a lion. And an unbreakable bond.

Elsbeth Munford is set to marry a dashing viscount until an accident destroys her life. Devastated, Ellie resigns herself to a life of spinsterhood, her beauty tainted by ugly scars.

Until one day, when she receives a proposal of marriage... from a man she loved long ago.

Frederick Lancaster, brother to the Marquess of Elmridge, returns home from war. Unable to make his peace with the past, he retreats into the dark until his brother dies unexpectedly and Frederick is thrust into a world of duty. In order to father an heir, he agrees to marry...a woman he does not remember.

Can Frederick see past Ellie's scars? Will Ellie be able to heal his wounded soul?

This tale by a USA Today best-selling author of two broken souls searching for love shows that sometimes the most painful scars are the ones we cannot see.

Excellent Story

The story was enthralling couldn’t stop listening. Unfortunately I did not feel the narrator did it justice.

Excellent Listen

Good plot which went along at a good pace and kept you guessing right to the end, all the while serving up a love story. Most enjoyable and will definitely be listened to again (and probably many times more). Only niggle was the weak narrator and the word (spelling and pronunciation) Marquess?

Boring

Incredibly dull and long winded with a predictable ending. I finished this on pure stubbornness and will now be immediately deleting from my audible library
