The handsome and charismatic Earl of Stratton, Caleb Ware, has been exposed to the ton for his clandestine affairs-by his own son.
As a child, Devlin Ware thought his family stood for all that was right and good in the world. They were kind, gracious, and shared the beauty of Ravenwood, their grand country estate, by hosting lavish parties for the entire countryside. But at twenty-two, he discovered his whole world was an elaborate illusion, and when Devlin publicly called his family to account for it, he was exiled as a traitor.
So be it. He enlisted in the fight against Napoleon and didn't look back for six years. But now his father is dead, the Ware family is broken, and as the heir he is being called home. It's only when Gwyneth Rhys-the woman he loved and then lost after his family banished him-holds out her hand to help him that he is able make the difficult journey and try to piece together his fractured family.
It is Gwyneth's loyalty, patience, and love that he needs. But is Devlin's war-hardened heart even capable of offering her love in return?

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Balogh (the Westcott series) launches her Ravenswood series with a stunningly emotional Regency romance. Devlin Ware, heir to the Earl of Stratton, appears to come from the perfect family. Every summer, his parents and siblings host a fete for the local community around their estate, Ravenswood Hall, in Hampshire. The summer of 1808 holds special promise, as Devlin discovers that his neighbor Gwyneth Rhys, whom he's long pined for in secret, believing her to be entangled with his brother, returns his affection. But Devlin's idyllic world is shattered when he discovers his father's infidelity. When upstanding Devlin reveals the earl's bad behavior to society, he's banished from the family. Forced to leave home, he joins the fight against Napoleon in France—and leaves a broken hearted Gwyneth in his wake. Six years later, a battle-scarred and embittered Devlin returns to claim his inheritance after his father's death—and though neither he nor Gwyneth have forgotten each other, Devlin's wounds may be too deep for love to heal. Balogh again proves her mastery of Regency romance, expertly revealing her characters' psychological depths. This second-chance love story proves impossible to put down.
Customer Reviews
Love the main couple and the journey they take.
Loved the main couple of this book, from their sweetness as a couple when young to the reconnection when they’re older. Would definitely read again.
My only personal faults would be, the beginning of the book was very long explaining scenery around them and nearly all the characters before we got to the main couple. The second would be I wished we had more of a glimpse into their married life seen them at Gwyn’s brother wedding or establishing their house together in an epilogue. Still would recommend this book for regency lovers
