Great romance with a woman who can rescue herself - I love period pieces and this doesn't disappoint.
From back cover: The author of such unforgettable novels as A Rose in Scotland and Exquisite, Joan Overfield once again spins a sweeping tale of a man shattered by war, and the woman he cannot forget ...
For years Lord Stephen Rockholme had been a rake of the first order, devoted to the pursuit of sensual pleasure, if not to the women who so willingly provided it. The decision to rejoin his old regiment and depart for the peninsula meant only that he faced one last evening of intimate delight. He found himself bewitched by the emerald eyes of the woman who called herself Cat....
Five years later, Stephen returns to England a changed man with only one desire-to find the elusive Cat, whose memory haunted and sustained him through the horrors of war.
