I was impatient and just wanted to know why she hated her husband so much. Like you, I spent a lot of the beginning of this story frustrated with Bryony. Rowena: I haven’t been in the mood for historicals so I wasn’t all that enthused about starting this one but I am glad that I read and finished it. But my heart really ached for her after we found out her reasons for pulling away. I was frustrated with Bryony in the beginning, because I didn’t understand why she was so cold toward her former husband. When our book club suggested this novel, I was really excited. Holly: I am a total sucker for second chance romances. But as they risk their lives for each other on the journey home, will the biggest danger be the treacherous war around them-or their rekindling passion? Leo has no reason to think Bryony could ever forgive him for the way he treated her, but he won’t rest until he’s delivered an urgent message from her sister-and fulfilled his duty by escorting her safely back to England. Why, then, three years after their annulment and half a world away, does he track her down at her clinic in the remotest corner of India? A man as talented, handsome, and sought after by society as Leo Marsden couldn't possibly want to spend his entire life with a woman who rebelled against propriety by becoming a doctor. Their marriage lasted only slightly longer than the honeymoon-to no one’s surprise, not even Bryony Asquith’s. Now Sherry delivers this powerful story of a remarkable woman and the love she thought she’d never find-with the man she thought she’d lost forever.… Sherry Thomas is one of the hottest new voices in historical romance, garnering the highest praise from today’s bestselling writers (“Entrancing.” -Mary Balogh “Ravishingly sinful, intelligent and addictive.” -Eloisa James).
