Jack Dilhorne was in Washington DC on business just as the war was being declared between the North and South states. It was not the best of times to meet someone as intriguing as Marietta Hope. But they had an enemy who could inflict much damage on their growing love...
Paula was born in Leicester and grew up in Nottingham. After finishing school, she was employed as a research librarian, and studied for her library examinations after work.
Paula has three children, and when the third started school, she returned to work, beginning a new career as a part-time lecturer in English and general studies. After four years of teaching, it became necessary for her to gain a degree, and Paula did just that. She enrolled in the open university and spent the next four years earning a first class honors BA in history.
A bit old-fashioned in writing and story style. I liked reading more about members of the Dilhorne family, having read the earlier books in the series, but this story itself wasn't my fav. I didn't mind the change in setting to USA, and the story started off quite well. But Sophie, the nasty bee-arch who was out for revenge, was a bit too nasty for my taste, and it all got a bit too angsty for me, before the eventual HEA. I admit I did a bit of skimming in the second half of the book. Not a horrible read, but not that great either.
