Is this "dead man" her true love?
Reynaud St. Aubyn has risen from the dead. After being held captive for seven long years, he has returned to his ancestral home to regain his life and title. Has he gone mad? He must prove otherwise or the dream he has held on to will be gone.
Beatrice Corning is the niece of the man who has taken Reynaud's place as the Earl of Blanchard. She has been fascinated by Reynaud ever since she first saw his portrait in their home. Is this the same man? Will all her fantasies be fulfilled?
Reynaud and Beatrice are drawn to each other but will the torture of the last seven years keep Reynaud from being able to love? Beatrice must decide if she is willing to sacrifice everything for him, even herself. Will he do the same?
This was an exciting romance. It's the final book in The Legend of the Four Soldiers Series. I intend to read the others after experiencing this one. Elizabeth Hoyt does an excellent job of painting a picture of that time period. The passion between Beatrice and Reynaud was on fire. This story has everything you want in a historical romance. This is a good book to curl up with on those cold evenings.
