Synopsis:
BETROTHED TO ONE MAN, IN LOVE WITH ANOTHER
Rachel Strand, a beautiful young Englishwoman, discovered a wounded stranger on the battlefield of Waterloo. Despite his wounds, the valiant young soldier saved her from looters--and possibly worse.
Though engaged to a powerful and dangerous Frenchman who was secretly plotting against England, Rachel was drawn to this stranger. No one knew who he was. He had no memory of his past, his name, or his family. It was obvious, though, that he was a gentleman. It was also obvious that he was attracted to Rachel. But Rachel had promised herself to the Frenchman.
Now the Frenchman holds her prisoner in his castle. She dare not think of escape--unless the stranger shows her the way ...
