A tempestuous beauty with topaz eyes and tawny hair...a gambler as handsome as he is charmimg...an international war...all play a part in this enthralling romantic novel. Amid the lush green splendor of Louisiana horse country in 1812, fiercely independent Melissa Seymour finds herself drawn to devilishly irrestible Dominic Slade-although they cross verbal swords from the moment they meet. But as war between the U.S. and Britian rages, and treacherous political intrigue threatens, their concealed passions explode in a love story as turbulent and magnificent as the times. This was a great love story from Shirlee. Although when Dominic couldn't see through Melissa's disguise? That was alittle too much to believe. If she's this beautiful then glasses and a bun are not going to make her ugly. That was alittle far-fetched. Other than that it was a great read!
