Summary

The war might be over, but their battle has just begun.

After losing her husband and only child to the ravages of the Civil War, 25-year-old Portia McAllister is drowning in grief. When she sees an ad for a live-in tutor in another town, she leaves everything behind in hopes of making a fresh start.

But as a Confederate widow in a Union household, she is met with resentment from her new charge and her employer, war veteran Beau Stanford.

Despite their differences, she and Beau find common ground and the stirrings of a second chance at love - until his late wife’s cousin, Lydia, arrives with her sights set on him.

Burdened with a farm on the brink of bankruptcy, Beau is tempted by Lydia’s hefty dowry, though Portia has captured his heart. In another time and another place, his choice would be easy.

But love seems impossible amid the simmering chaos of reconstruction that could boil over at any moment into an all-out battle for survival. Will Beau and Portia find their way into each other’s arms, or will they be swept away by raging forces beyond their control?

If you enjoy Civil War era fiction, epic love stories that require a whole box of tissues, and "just one more chapter" pause-resisters, you'll love this standalone, award-winning, historical romance.

What a great romance!

When a woman loses everything, thanks to the Civil War. She feels she has no other choice than to get employment and find a new place to be. She gets hired by a family up north the tutor the son of the house. All should be well, But emotions are raw her accent is southern and their standards point north. When she starts having feelings for her charges dead, she doesn’t know what to do and when she notices he just may have feelings for her as well she gets even more confused. This book was so good and I wish I had more time to write this review, but I don’t. So I will just say if you love historical romance this is one of the best I’ve read in a long time. I highly highly recommend it. The narrator in the story were both awesome. Please forgive any grammatical or punctuation of errors as I am blind and dictate my review, but all opinions on my own.

Sweet Historical Romance

This was incredibly, heartbreaking, inspiring, gutwrenching, funny and depressing! They both suffered love and loss, but the treatment they received from so called family was even worse than what they had received from enemies during the war!
The narration was remarkable!
