Lord Adem Heliodor has been sent into retirement, but it’s
not exactly his choice, it’s the queen’s. But he can hardly argue with her. He
knows he’s not the same man, ever since the Screaming. Still, it’s hard to
accept being put out to pasture and not being a part of things any more. Which
makes him a bit testy. Which explains why the new librarian accidentally
dropping books on his head rubs him the wrong way.
Heliodor has been closed to love for many years, after his
time with a certain handsome guardsman who left for war and never came home.
But life is funny, and things can change, and Heliodor finds himself in the
middle of things again—and fighting for life and love once more.
This is a very short story, but oh, how wonderful it is. I
fell in love with Adem and Cory, and was sorry to see their story end. I pray
the author has more adventures in store for them.
She sweeps us into their lives and makes us love them, and
root for them to stay together. It’s very well written, and it’s a definite
twist on the traditional Regency story. I shall be looking for more stories by
Amy Rae Durreson in the future.
