A dedicated colonial in British-occupied Long Island,
Felicity Dyson is loyal to Washington's cause, acting as
both his courier and, without his knowledge, nurse to his
injured soldiers. Though she hotly denies her attraction
to Captain Jared Walker, the rakishly handsome British
doctor makes no secret of his desire or his determination
to possess her. And when he discovers her secret, he
presses his advantage. But Felicity and Jared know that
their game of seduction will ignite a love neither
anticipates...nor wants. For Felicity has reason never to
trust any man, and Jared knows the all-consuming grief
that love can bring. As the cries of freedom ring through
the land, sinister danger close to home will threaten all
they hold dear as they fight their greatest battle...for
love.
