Description
April 1863 Outside Washington, DC Having just returned home from the Union captured city of New Orleans, Captain Josh Calub realizes he’s still in love with his sister-in-law. He can’t be. He just can’t allow himself to be. It’s why he immediately heads for Washington to speak to the President about getting new orders. Maybe if he’s away from her, he can get on with his life and not live with the constant guilt. However, on his way through the city, he comes across an elderly man auctioning off his daughter. Seeing the exploited, terrified female on an auction block, makes his sense of decency rage. He outbids all others then learns part of the buying, is marrying the girl. It’s not what he planned on. Not at all. However, mentally debating it, he believes she might be the answer to his prayers; those of finding a way to put his sister-in-law out of his mind and heart forever.
Selene Gray has seen the worst men have to offer. She loathes and distrusts most, including her stepfather Horace Wilby who has abused her much of her life. She’s only known hard work, and little joy. When she unfairly gets fired from a Union Hospital, her stepfather intends to get even by selling her off. Her humiliation reaches its zenith when she’s put on an auction block. But when a handsome captain buys and marries her, she needs to learn how to survive this newest threat.
Josh and Selene’s love story delves into the harsh reality of war, and the raw emotions that it causes. Can they learn to trust? Love? Read their tumultuous story to find out…

Josh IS a hero. What a down to earth, just all round great guy every woman would love to have. Seline made his perfect compliment. The Civil War details were the perfect amount and I’m not into history but this kept my interest. Wish more books came in this large print. No eyestrain.

I purchased three novels from Ms Russell at a local book signing. She’s a very modest, down to earth person who takes pride in her writing. She was gracious enough to autograph everyone’s books and even answered our questions. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed her work. I’ve ordered more.

I love the characters! So glad Debra brought the chacters back from Destinies Intertwined plus added new ones. Made it so much more fun to read. A really good story. The Gettysburg section and Josh’s return home. It was deeply moving. It just shows how devastating wars are to families. Love how the author empowered Selene.
