After the bloody battle of Waterloo, he has returned from the war a changed man, full of rage and guilt.

Somehow she determines to melt icy Lord Winterbourne's frozen heart, and she's prepared to be wicked to do it.***NOTE: Contains mild swearing and mildly graphic and descriptive sex scenes - NOT erotica***
