In this M/M gay Regency historical romance novel, Daniel has both dreaded and prayed for the return of the only man he ever loved. But he is reluctant to give his heart again to a man who already deserted him once.
 Harry knew that Daniel would be angry when he returned to England after ten years. But he expected his former lover to be overwhelmed at his return and his declaration of love. He didn't count on Daniel's refusal to forgive him.


Harry also doesn't expect to find his estranged, pregnant wife staying with Daniel. He watches with relief as Christy falls under the spell of Daniel's dearest friend, Simon Gantry. Christy is more than happy to divorce Harry so he can be with Daniel. But one of Daniel's oldest friends, Constable Robert Manderley, complicates matters when he falls for Christy, too. 

Harry's family wants him dead, and his wife and her baby, too. They have other plans for the family fortune than to let it fall into Harry's hands. Harry has to protect Christy and the baby, make sure Simon and Robert have good intentions toward Christy, and make Daniel fall back in love with him. All in a day's work for a man who made his fortune in the wilds of America.

The desire is still there between them, and Harry will use that to break down Daniel's defenses. Daniel's anger slowly melts under Harry's seductive persuasion, but they must defeat the memory of Harry's past mistakes to earn a future together.
