But it doesn’t prove to be an easy task-Robert knows something about Phillip that could shake Miranda to the core and alter her view of the man she thought she knew so well. He makes it his duty to protect Miranda, turn her reputation around, and to find some way to help her smile again. He’s mesmerized by her beauty and yearns to help her in any way he can. But the moment Robert laid eyes on her, his plans changed. He would help Miranda as quickly as possible in order to honor his promise. Robert had thought his duty would be simple. Miranda seems hopeless, lost, and so very alone.

Even more disturbing is her emotional well-being. Phillip’s name has been dragged through the mud, everyone in town believes him to be a traitor, and his widow is treated as an outcast. When he arrives at Miranda’s home in Galveston, Texas, things are worse than he imagined. After the war, Robert is left to pick up the pieces and fulfill his pact. She was his life, his world, his everything. If anything happened to Phillip, Robert would look after his beloved wife, Miranda. Robert Truax, former Second Lieutenant and Confederate officer in the Civil War, made a promise to his comrade Phillip Markham. He didn’t expect to find love in the unlikeliest of places.
