Steamy romance sizzles between a resurrected earl and his repentant bride in USA TODAY bestselling author Meredith Duran's latest historical romance. Back from the dead, an earl seeks vengeance... Liam Devaliant, Lord Lockwood, was born into a charmed life. Charismatic, powerful, and wild, he had the world at his feet—and one woman as his aim. His wedding to Anna was meant to be his greatest triumph. Instead, in a single moment, a wicked conspiracy robbed him of his future and freedom. ...but will his long-lost countess pay the price? Four years later, Liam has returned from death with plans for revenge. Standing in his way, though, is his long-absent bride. Once, he adored Anna's courage. Now it seems like a curse, for Anna refuses to fear or forget him. If she can't win back Liam's love, then she means at least to save his soul...no matter the cost.

I liked it. For a while, I thought we were going to sink into the familiar trope of your love saved me from PTSD, anxiety etc... that often plagues romance books. I still felt like there were slight elements of that, but it provided a more believable portrayal of dealing with PTSD in that era than I usually see. The ending was all a bit haphazard in my opinion. I was left wondering as I often am, why historical romance authors insist on shoehorning a mystery/murder subplot into their novels. These subplots rarely often work, and usually detract from the romance while leading to a weaker plot overall.
