Cherished Enemy

Rosamond Albritton is a lovely young woman of good family whose fiancé was killed by Jacobite rebels, and she holds them in open contempt. When she is injured during a channel crossing, the surgeon who treats her, Dr. Robert Victor, strikes her as arrogant, and she is quick to distrust him. His penetrating looks and attentive touch unsettle her in ways she cannot explain. Rosamond's orderly life unravels as she finds herself drawn to this unreadable man. As the wider world works against the two of them, they must defend their reputations and their safety before their love can have a chance.
