MY THOUGHTS
This is a post-civil war Historical Romance.


Mercy has a past...a past that leaves her as she is found dressed in men's clothing and left with no memories.

This is a book that you won't be able to put down, you just have to keep turning the pages in the hope that Mercy will remember.

A beautiful story, not only filled with drama but with love as well!

Sometimes when a book is written by two authors it becomes stilted and difficult to follow, not this book, it was a joy to read and you just can't help falling in love with the characters, rooting for them as the story unfolds!
