USA Today bestselling author Sharon Cullen's captivating novel tells the deeply emotional tale of two devoted lovers facing the ravages of war.   For months now, Lady Grace Ashworth has mourned the death of her beloved husband--until the day a very-much-alive Michael arrives at her front door. It's nothing less than a miracle. However, Grace soon realizes that this Michael isn't the same man who left for the Crimean War. She's stunned to learn that he has suffered a devastating head injury. Putting all her own desires aside, Grace resolves to devote herself to Michael's recovery and to love him no matter what troubles may come.   Convinced that his wife is wasting her time on a broken man, Michael attempts to shield Grace from a life of inconvenience by driving her away. But Grace will have none of that. Despite every obstacle Michael throws in her path, she stubbornly soldiers on, fighting not only for their marriage but for the love they once shared. In the end, will her determination alone be enough to save Michael from the darkness that threatens to consume him?

Not sure if I liked this story or not. For some reason it just was not interesting to me. The flow of the story was slow. ( )

Now this historical romance was a real treat! A fine example of how to write this genre, I was surprised at some of the issues she explored and the sheer depth of emotions present.

When the male lead’s condition is revealed, I was surprised. What a unique twist…. It’s a truly harsh condition that even nowadays is hard to treat and diagnose. Back in 1855? Let’s just say I’m surprised Michael didn’t end up in an asylum. The author isn’t afraid to explore the darker side of his syndrome; even at the end of the novel, everything isn’t resolved. The shadow of his condition and past will be with him always, and the reader isn’t led to believe anything else.

Most of the emotional depth and drama is a result of the hero’s situation and how that relates to his marriage and position as an earl. The author sucked me into his struggle and Grace’s efforts to give him hope and resolution as they fought this struggle together. There are some truly dark times explored; they put into stark relief the power that the love these two share has in fighting those times. I adored how strong Grace was in meeting these challenges; her will shined with strength and she wasn’t about to take any gruff from Michael as they work towards a workable plan for the future.

This has become one of my favorite historical romances. Its emotional strength kept me reading, and it’s not afraid to explore some bleak material. I think it’s a strength in historical romances when they have a situation such as the hero’s in which everything in the end DOESN’T completely get resolved at the end. It makes the romance shine all the brighter, in my humble opinion. I highly recommend this romance to any lover of the genre. It’s definitely a favorite of mine now. ( )

Love is enough!

The emotional turbulence of having the husband declared dead return from the grave is absolutely heart rendering for Lady Grace Ashworth
Michael, The Earl of Blackbourne, was said to have been killed on a Crimean battlefield. Grace had never stopped mourning.
The Michael who has returned is very different to the one who left.
Michaels story is violent, his wounds barely visible but nonetheless deep and entrenched.
Only Grace's love stands between him and total despair, despite his best efforts to turn her away.
Tragic and tender and turbulent, this is a lovely story with the requisite amount of darstardly relations trying to overturn Michael's reclaiming of his title.
