He had already risked everything -except his heart.When captured French army engineer Alexandre Valmont learns why his officer's parole has been wrongly revoked and he's been placed in a war prison, he knows returning to France is the only way he can clear his name and restore his honor. On the run after escaping the prison, he has been depending on luck and his wits to avoid recapture. After he crosses paths with the beautiful daughter of a local baron, he becomes the unwilling recipient of her help when he is injured.Merissa Pritchard knows she may be committing treason by helping the handsome Frenchman, but she is drawn to him by forces she hardly understands. Hiding him and keeping her activities secret becomes more and more difficult with the passage of time. And as she comes to know him and falls in love, she also knows she is headed for certain heartbreak. Or is she?Alex wants to go home, not only to restore his name and honor, but also to help rebuild the nation he loves, cast into chaos by Napoleon's wars. He hasn't counted on losing his heart in his enemy's country, or finding himself a wanted man. Can Fate hold any future for him other than heartbreak?"Charming, suspenseful and romantic... a keeper!" -Affaire de Coeur"A must-read,...with emotional depth not found in many lighter stories of this genre." -The Paperback Forum
