Editorial Review:
Only she could redeem him...
He was tall and dark with eyes as blue as cobalt. In a glittering London ballroom Miss Hester Leighton saw a man who interested her more than anyone she'd met since coming to town. A woman of deep faith, Hester knew she should not keep company with Major Gerrit Hawkes, a jaded, penniless soldier haunted by nightmares of war. But their connection would not be denied.
Hester was the only woman who'd ever made Gerrit feel truly worthy of love, and he would not lose her. Separated from her by her father--and an ocean--Gerrit must decide whether he will risk his life and his soul to earn a home in Hester's arms forever.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Decent historical romance spoiled by preachy moralising
Major Gerrit Hawkes, a decorated hero, has returned home from Waterloo and finds himself unable to pick up his life as it was before: drinking, carousing and womanising. He can't forget the horrors of the battlefield, and particularly some of the very young French soldiers he had to kill. When he meets Hester, an American heiress visiting London with her father, he finds himself intrigued by her lack of interest in the usual London socialising, and unable to understand what she sees in him. He tries ... Read More
Rating: - Regency romance
Fighting the French has been Major Gerrit Hawkes destiny and despair. Choosing to dispel the nightmares with dissolute living, Gerrit is struck by the innocence and faith of young Hester Leighton, visiting London from the American colonies.
Out of her depth in London society, Hester is enamoured by Gerrit Hawkes, convinced of his good character despite reports to the contrary. Yet she is well aware that their friendship cannot develop further with Gerrit's estrangement from God.

Rating: - A Strong Man, A Strong Love and A Stronger God

Rating:  - Another Fabulous Book by This Author!!
I love this author and have read (and thoroughly enjoyed) ALL of her work, especially the Winter is Past Series. Once again, I could not put her latest book down.
Such compassion rose up inside of me for all of the characters in this book. Young Hester only wants a friend, and the only one offered to her in London, is someone who is wrong friendship material; but she is drawn to him and eventually concludes that he needs a friend more than she does, but more than that, she knows he needs to meet the Friend ...

Rating: - Morren does it again!!
This book meets the standard I have come to set for Morren and has earned a 5 star rating from me.
This book opens at a masked ball where the American heiress, Hester Leighton, is presented to a duke while members of the ton surrounding remark on her hoping to "snag a title." (When you actually MEET Hester, you become quickly aware that this is NOT the case...she is pure and innocent of the world of London nobility) The handsome war hero, Garret Hawkins, observes the scene and immediately feels drawn ...
