|---|
"Orphaned at 13, a bride at 14, widowed at 16, Sarah Kennedy has learned to depend on no one but herself - reserving all her love for her younger brother Conner. A hardened Civil War veteran, personal tragedy has taught Case Maxwell three things: to be patient, a deadly fighter, to love nothing that can die, and that justice is blind. But when confrontation with his sworn enemies, the Culpeper clan leaves him near death, Case finds himself under the tender care of Sarah. Two souls haunted by a perilous present and the ghosts of the past, they find a passionate love that burns like winter fire."
