" Move Heaven and Earth"--by Christina Dodd--a touching love story between a man and woman both scarred by the horrors of the Napoleonic Wars and the Battle of Waterloo

Move Heaven and Earth  by  Christina Dodd

Miss Sylvan Miles dreaded the moment she'd see Lord Rand Malkin again. Once a dashing rogue, he'd returned from a battle a changed man. Sylvan, too, has suffered. Sharpened by scandal and tragedy, she vows to heal Rand's body and spirit.

But when Sylvan arrives at Clairmont Court, the man she encounters is far from the shattered ex-soldier she expects. Rand takes great pleasure in taunting her with stolen kisses and the legend of his ancestor's ghost. But Sylvan isn't fooled by his bravado and sets out to break down his defenses ... while she fortifies her own against temptation ...


MY REVIEW:   MOVE HEAVEN AND EARTH is a touching love story between a man and woman both scarred by the horrors of the Napoleonic Wars and the Battle of Waterloo. Sylvan Miles was revered by the injured men she tended. However, society looked upon nursing as not suitable for a lady, and Sylvan was a victim of malicious gossip. Rand Malkin was a veteran who came home confined to a wheelchair. His brother Garth recoginzed that Sylvan could help Rand overcome his physical injuries and regain his peace of mind. In return, Garth and his family would provide a safe haven for Sylvan. As time passes, family secrets are revealed, and a restless spirit haunts the ancestral home. Danger lurks in the form of an unknown enemy bent on destroying the Malkin empire. Sylvan and Rand are drawn together not only by love and desire, but also by the bond they share as survivors.
