🔥“A gripping story of resilience and rescue.””
🔥“I absolutely loved the slow-burn romance and gallantry.” 🔥“Tightly knit tale of a wonderful family who fights for those trapped in physical and emotional slavery.”For once in his life, Keir was at a loss for words. Aye, this little wisp of a girl moved him like no other ever had before. She praised him for his openness and honesty when, in truth, she was the one who held nothing back, who gave everything of herself. She did not hesitate to reveal her every weakness, spoke honestly of what made her feel vulnerable, and it was that which Keir admired the most. Aye, he stood at her side because the dowager had asked him to; yet the fierceness with which he threw himself into this task had everything to do with Sarah alone.
"Sometimes I look at ye," Keir murmured, gently slipping his hands around her and pulling her closer, "and I am certain ye canna be real. There's something about ye that makes ye seem not from this world. It makes ye shine like a beacon, like an eternal flame, a fire deep within ye that can never be extinguished, and it draws me in close."
As always, Sarah's face revealed every emotion, every thought his words conjured. She seemed to glow like the beacon he had spoken of, her blue eyes luminous, and that tentative, shy smile that teased her lips almost made him forget everything.
"When the time is right," Keir said, slowly removing his hands from her, "I will kiss ye again, lass." He glanced toward the house, wondering if anyone was watching them. "Ye have my word on that."
The smile that came to Sarah's face was accompanied by a familiar blush that made her cheeks glow in a rosy hue and gave her an utterly innocent expression. "I shall remind you," she said boldly.
Keir chuckled. "Dunna worry. It willna be necessary. I willna forget."
She was once afraid to choose. Now, she dares others to do the same. Sarah Mortensen never imagined herself brave. But escaping a forced match—and the rules that demanded it—changed her. With Keir Mackinnear at her side, she’s begun to trust her instincts, her heart, and the quiet voice that tells her she deserves more. So when her sister sends an urgent cry for help, Sarah doesn’t hesitate. Society may disapprove—but its rules no longer define her.
He came to escort her. He stayed because he couldn’t walk away. Keir promised to protect Sarah, nothing more. But as she grows stronger and surer, something in him shifts. He tells himself it’s duty that keeps him close. Yet each look, each moment, each step away from the path he thought he was on suggests something deeper. Something he isn’t ready to name—but can no longer ignore.
Together, they face a new kind of battle—and a love that won’t be silenced. Helping her sister means facing scandal. It means interfering. It means defying every rule Sarah once followed blindly. But this time, she isn’t afraid. And Keir, with his steadiness and hidden fire, walks beside her not just to protect her—but because he chooses her. Again and again.
Because love isn’t polite. It isn’t convenient. And sometimes, the bravest thing you can do… is go back and rescue the person you used to be.
If strength feels like something you have to earn—over time, through tears, and tiny acts of courage—this tale understands.
Some stories can be told in a single book. Others cannot. This is one of those stories. For your full enjoyment, we recommend you start with book one, FLAMES OF WINTER.

It was an amazing story of love and redemption after betrayal and abandonment. But I had already read it. I wish she would tell when these are not new stories.
Delightful story! I enjoyed finding out about how Charles Whickerton and Beatrice came together. Beatrice has found herself in a situation where she may be forced, by her parents, to marry a much older man. When Charles first meets her, he is determined to make her his own. This is a beautiful, romantic tale and I highly recommend it.

Another beautiful story by this intrepid author. I loved the previous books in this series but this one blows the others out of the water. Troy and Nora are such fabulous characters that you struggle to understand why they separated five years ago. Secrets & misunderstandings along with some twists and turns kept my interest from start to finish. I thought that Grandma Edie was wonderful! This is a fantastic story that you don’t want to miss, but it helps to have read the earlier stories, in order to understand the Whickerton family members.
