A scarred soldier. A forbidden healer. Together, they must mend more than broken bodies.
Lieutenant-Colonel William Leeds returns from war with wounds far deeper than flesh. Haunted by pain and years in an asylum, he retreats to the countryside—ready to fade into solitude. But fate has other plans.
Fern Baxter, a gifted herbalist disgraced after a nobleman’s death, is desperate to clear her father’s name. Forbidden from practicing her craft, she accepts a position nursing the brooding, battle-scarred officer. She expects resistance. What she doesn’t expect is a spark—fragile but undeniable—between them.
As Fern risks everything to treat William in secret, his defenses begin to crack, revealing a man worthy of love and life. But Fern’s time is running out, and if she doesn’t leave to find proof of her father’s innocence, she may lose more than her freedom—she may lose her chance at love.
Can a ruined soldier and a banished healer find hope in each other before it’s too late?
