Their passion is powerful. The war deadly dangerous.

She disguises herself for the battle.
He must find her, protect her, no matter the cost.
It’s a war, to end all wars.

Miss Julia Chalmers isn’t like any other lady a gentleman would ever meet. Yes, she wears gowns and skirts, but she much prefers to don lad’s clothing, a disguise which allows her to roll up her sleeves within the trenches as she aids her father, an engineering professor of great renown. Their current mission: Halting the French in their bid to take over Portugal.

As Napoleon’s French force bears down on them, Major Harry Trentbury works diligently with a team of engineers in Portugal as they build fortified Lines of redoubts, trenches, and garrisons across the entire width of the peninsula to protect the city of Lisbon. At every turn he clashes with the professor’s daughter, a beautiful and quick-witted lady who stokes both his anger and passion to rise, his need for her an infuriating emotion he can’t seem to shake. As tensions increase and a battle becomes imminent, he rides out and fights on the front line, only disaster looms—she has followed him, disguised as a lad.

Protecting her now is essential, but when he suffers a terrible fall on the battlefield and awakens with a fatal loss of memory, all could be lost… Until he sees her.

Could she be the one to unlock his memories and bring him back to the land of the living?

Hi everyone, The Wartime Bride is here. I love giving a special low price for pre-order and the first three days of release week, so as usual there is $1 off as a thank you for all you’ve done for me. Thank you so much for your amazing support. I’ve included a lip-smacking excerpt below.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“Your men will be expecting you. I understand that you must go.” Julia would never keep Harry from doing his duty. “Will I see you tonight?”

“You surely will, and I apologize profusely for abandoning you so early in the morning.” After steering her back into her chamber, he eyed his regimental jacket where she’d left it folded on top of the book on her nightstand. A slow smile lifted his lips, his gaze tipping toward hers. “It all began with you removing my dolman.”

“No, it all began six months ago, when you rode into St. Vincent’s. I’ve fancied you since the beginning.” She collected his jacket and held it out to him and he accepted it, his fingers sliding sensually over the backs of her fingers. Her hand tingled, her skin so sensitive to his touch. “Do you remember the first day we met, Harry?”

“Always. You scolded me, terribly.”

“I had every right to. You raced across the firing range and dived on top of me. We rolled quite the distance, and you ruined my blue skirts. I had to toss my favorite white blouse away too.”

“You could have been hit by cannon fire.”

“I hadn’t intended on crossing the actual cannon firing range, only skimming the outside.”

“It didn’t appear that way to me.” He touched his chest. “My heart hasn’t beaten the same way ever since.”

“Neither has mine.” That much she could certainly admit to. “It will be an interesting affair, don’t you think?”

“Likely the best affair of my life.” He flinched and clasped his dolman over the front of his breeches, but not before she’d caught the telltale sign of a bulge rising within. “Julia,” he muttered. “You need to cease flirting with me. Mr. Jones is not getting the point, that he and I are about to head out for training.”

“Is it painful when that happens?”

“Are you curious as to a man’s nether regions?”

“Only yours.” She licked her lips.

Wishing you all a wonderful week. Stay safe.

Happy Reading.
