From vicar's son
To captain of her heart!
Lady Helene Banes travels to Brussels to bring her battle-seeking younger brother home, only to collide with Rhys Landon, her ex-fiancé! Gone is the penniless vicar's son, now transformed into a combat-hardened captain. The spark still burns between them, but Rhys has a new love now—the army. Until, on the eve of battle, with Napoleon's troops advancing, the emotional turmoil of their past explodes into a night of passion!
From Harlequin Historical: Your romantic escape to the past.

      Gaston's riveting Regency romance takes place far from the graceful ballrooms of the London ton as Lady Helene heads to Brussels to find her feckless brother David, who, eschewing his responsibilities as earl of Yarford, intends to witness the clash between Napoleon and Wellington. After searching taverns filled with drunken soldiers accompanied by her faithful family retainer, Wilson, Helene spots David and also sees her ex-fianc�, Rhys. Now a captain in his majesty's service, Rhys rescues David from what could have been a deadly beating and carries him to Helene's hotel. She has never forgotten Rhys, and he has no idea why she cancelled their wedding plans. Helene intends to take David home immediately, but Wilson falls ill, and other complications arise. RITA Award-winner Gaston dramatizes not only long-delayed passion but also a difficult sibling relation and respectful affection for an employee, while her thoroughly researched and vividly described depiction of the Battle of Waterloo and its aftermath makes this appealing for fans of both historical fiction and historical romance and a good read-alike for Mary Balogh's Only a Promise (2015).
