Laura Stephenson intenta ocultar su naturaleza sensual bajo una fachada de rigidez victoriana, hasta que el valiente mayor Ian Cameron le hace una propuesta de matrimonio que ella se atreve a aceptar. Después de que los años de cautividad en Asia occidental acabaran con sus sueños, Ian encuentra en los ojos ambarinos de Laura la esperanza en un futuro que él creía imposible.
Juntos luchan por construir un matrimonio único. Pero el peligro y las intrigas que les rodean son menos dañinos que los secretos ocultos en sus corazones. Solo el coraje indomable del verdadero amor les hará libres para sacar a la luz la salvaje pasión que los dos temen... y desean.

Too much dialogue and I got bored and started skimming and almost didn't finish it. I didn't connect with the characters at all. (
