It was a perfect morning in May . . . 

Neville Wyatt, Earl of Kilbourne, awaited his bride at the altar—when a ragged beggar woman raced down the aisle instead. The cream of the ton saw him stare, shocked, then declare that this was his wife!One night of passion was all he remembered as he beheld Lily, the woman he'd wed, loved, and lost on the battlefield in Portugal. Now he said he'd honor his commitment to her—regardless of the gulf that lay between them. 

After accidentally reading the Simply Quartet before the Bedwyn Saga (didn't know the quartet was a sequel), I picked up the Bedwyn Saga to read their stories. The first half of the book dragged a bit. Or I should say the first half of the book set in the present dragged for me. I enjoyed the few chapters about the time in the army. The second half definitely picked up the pace and the story. Neville was an okay character, but I really loved Lily and Elizabeth. Great characters! I will definitely be reading the rest of the Bedwyn Saga.
