From Booklist
After finding a wounded man stumbling around outside their cottage, Bianca Dunsworthy, her sister Primrose, and their aunt Millicent bring him inside to recuperate only to discover that he is Lucian, the earl of Wandersee. Bianca decides to promote a match between her extremely shy sister and the earl, since Lucian is one of the few men who seems to interest Primrose. But when Lucian discovers Bianca's plan, he decides that two can play that game, and he starts his own campaign to pair Bianca up with one of his friends. But Bianca and Lucian remain haunted by their memories of the recent war, and it's only when Bianca and Lucian learn to let go of the past and realize they were meant to be together that a brighter future seems possible. Ferguson begins a new trilogy devoted to the three Dunsworthy women, and her inspired use of an interesting historical moment and the Plymouth setting gives her latest charming Regency a refreshingly different flavor.
