Bound by duty and honor to wear the Union blue, a Southern-born West Point officer fights his own desires and the need to protect the woman he abandoned, he disobeys his orders to find her, as the Army of the Potomac marches toward her family’s home near Richmond.
She has the guts and willpower to protect her home from the hated Yankee aggressors, but when that traitor to the South appears at her … at her door, she’s torn between wanting to shoot him and to be held in his arms again. Can she forgive him for their past indiscretion or does she turn him in to be executed, a traitor to both sides?
In the summer of 1862, her family’s plantation becomes the personal battle ground between them as deceit, betrayal and passion ignite the flames of love and hate that burn brighter than the roar of the guns and rivers of blood surrounding them.

The author spent 95% of the book making life for the heroine miserable. Every step she took led to a tragic outcome. However, in the final chapter all was forgiven and she ended up with the hero. It went from being incredibly messy to neatly wrapped up in a few paragraphs. Fairly unreasonable.
Loved it.
Started out great but ended rather abruptly without resolution imo
I really liked this book. Free on book bub
Disappointed. All the male character could do was think with his personal anatomy instead of his brain as his trained military officer status was trained to be. Too much unresolved issues that most people would have cleared up in lot less time.
Characters were highly unlikable, the plot was ridiculous and repetitive, and the Civil war “action” was hard to understand and seemed forced. Overall, it wasn’t for me, and I don’t recommend this one.
The lead male was a dog. Could have made him a decent man. He screwed everything that walked. Ruined it for me.
I wanted to like this book but I really didn’t care for any of the characters.
Too much war detail.
At 25% I was so bored, I gave up. Very little dialog between characters who were uninteresting, even the H and h. I don’t recommend it.
