Lady Grace Carrington had never seen such carnage. Searching the battlefield for survivors in the aftermath of the 1815 Battle of Waterloo, she stumbles across Sgt. Duncan Mackenzie, barely conscious from a bayonet wound. As the weeks go by and Duncan is discharged from the military to become a member of the elite Highland Knights, a group meant to infiltrate and investigate insurgents, the attraction between the pair grows ever stronger. All would be perfect, but how could a commoner ever hope to marry the daughter of an earl without bringing disgrace to her family's honor?
VERDICT Readers will respect Grace's strength when she is sorely tested, while Duncan's warm, courageous heart will enrapture fans of Scottish rogues. In this first book in her "Highland Knights" series, Haymore (The Rogue's Proposal) teases readers into craving the next installment, though this work reads well as a stand-alone novel.
