Description

Shona Imrie must have decided to Gordon MacDermond’s suggestion of marriage ago—before seven decades he went off to battle and delivered a nationwide hero—but no man’s charity would be accepted by the proud Scottish lass. The soldier would not certainly reveal her the appreciation and love that left her speechless and weak —approximately she believed—so alternatively she offered himself to a different. Today she encounters poverty, shame, and a life used alone for her steadfast refusal to check out her heart. Recognized with a baronetcy for his bravery under-fire, Gordon has anything he could actually want—except for the thing he most fervently wishes: the beauty he foolishly let slip through his hands.
