Publisher Description
Even the most refined lady craves an untamed man to release her passion.
Britain's high society—le bon ton—loves nothing more than a good scandal, and they're giddy with the appearance of wealthy Samuel Hartley. Not only is he self-made, American, and in the habit of wearing moccasins, but he is also notorious for fleeing a battle in which several English gentlemen lost their lives. What le bon ton doesn't know, though, is that Samuel is in London because of this massacre. He believes his regiment was given up to the enemy and won't rest until he finds the traitor.
Lady Emeline Gordon is captivated by Samuel. Not only does he defy convention with his unusual dress, his sensual smile, and his forthright manner, but he survived the battle that killed her beloved brother. Samuel suspects that the person responsible for her brother's death is Jasper Renshaw, Viscount Vale, a family friend since childhood and Emeline's fianc├®. Despite Emeline's belief in Vale's innocence and her refusal to break off her betrothal, she and Samuel begin a passionate affair. But can their relationship survive the fallout from Samuel's investigation?

" The tale of Ironheart was my favorite part, and I'm sure if I had actually read the book I'd probably have skipped it. "

" Elizabeth Hoyt writes books that are consistently likable. This was the beginning of a series about four soldiers. Interwoven into the story (and subsequent books) are fairy tales about four soldiers. <br/>I didn't warm up to Emmeline and Samuel that much but still really enjoyed the story. "
— Laura, 1/9/2011 -

" Enjoyed this book and it had some good steamy scenes...Even tho Emeline came off as a big snob at first I liked how it ended "
— Heather, 10/29/2010 -
" I am looking for a new series and haven't read Elizabeth Hoyt before. The story itself didn't keep my attention much. I found that I had to convince myself to read the book. Not sure at this time if I will read book 2. The story did build up to the series. "
