Book Description
There's my exit, that didn't take too long. Eager to get showered, I unpacked and prepared to settle in my bed for the night. Well, I can relax now; I got a glass of wine, retired out by the pool and listened to the sounds of the night, singing the songs of another day gone by. Like a bolt of lightning striking me, the memory of a little boy hiding under the table in the storage room at church, muffling his cries, holding back his tears, as he took the paper towels and wiped away the blood. It began to flood over in my mind.

Pages : 260
Book Description
London 1811 Can love withstand the ultimate betrayal? William was running. Running from his father, running from his arranged marriage, and running from himself. He'd never wanted to manage his father's vast empire. He would have been quite happy to find some small corner of England and read and paint. He knew it would be too much to ask for the company of a man to go with that. Too dangerous. His only hope for escape is to hide who and what he is and pretend to be a servant. Alex was barely surviving after the fight with Napoleon's armies. Riddled with guilt, he buried the knowledge of his wife's death, and his crippled body, at the bottom of whatever brandy bottle he could find. Two broken souls. One so damaged he thinks he doesn't deserve love, and one so convinced he would never find it he has stopped looking. Danger, lies, and espionage. The fate of hundreds of English soldier's lives depending on them to trust each other, to work together. Alex is forced to make a choice, unable to swallow his pride and rejects Will and their chance of happiness. Will is heartbroken, and Alex is destroyed. Will Alex realize his mistake in time? Can he learn to trust Will, but more importantly himself, and would Will ever forgive him if he did? And finally, would love ever survive a betrayal - even if it is an innocent one?
