A very good historical romance with lots of physical love (wink, wink). The characters were very likeable and for once I was pleased to read about a hero who immediately and readily acknowledged his great attraction and love for the heroine without all that "Do I love her? I certainly lust after her" angst that most romantic heroes go through. The characters still had there difficult hurdles, duty and scandal, that is par for the course in a Regency novel but I really enjoyed this book and thought it well written.

Disowned! But deeply in love! Emily Spencer was both when she eloped to the Continent with her handsome young soldier. Now widowhood had brought her back to England - and into the arms of Evan Mansfield, the dashing Earl of Cheverley, who willingly gave her his heart...but could never give her his name.
Elemental and Eternal... Such was the passion Emily Spencer inspired in Evan Mansfield. Surely this woman was his destiny, his forever love, despite her lack of aristocratic ties. But honor and a deathbed promise demanded he bind himself in marriage to another - and abandon the only joy he'd ever known!
