New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Karen Ranney tells a beauty and the beast story of true love. Laura Blake has been in love with her next door neighbor, Alex Weston, ever since she was a child. The Seven Years War separated them, however, and in the intervening years, Alex lost his youthful enthusiasm for life while Laura grew into a woman more certain than ever of her feelings. Alex returned home from the war horribly scarred, and it was his attitude about his disfigurement and his resultant reclusive life that posed the greatest threat to their happiness. Laura managed to convince Alex of the power of love, but Fate stepped in and changed their lives again.
