About this audiobook
In the untamed landscape of Scotland, two souls, each bearing the weight of their own scars, find an unexpected connection.
Lieutenant John Holdsworth, a valiant veteran of the Battle of Waterloo, carries not only the physical wounds of war but the haunting memories that threaten to shackle his heart forever. Now, as the steward of a sprawling Scottish estate, he finds solace in his work in the solitude of the Highlands.
Catriona Craig, is the enchanting adopted daughter of Lord Craig. Her world revolves around the compassionate act of healing. Amidst the winds and fragrant meadows of the estate, she discovers her purpose, nursing not only the ailments of the body but also the wounded spirits that cross her path.
As John and Catriona's lives intertwine, an unlikely friendship blossoms. He, a man of war, and she, a guardian of life, find solace and understanding in one another's presence. But beneath the tranquil surface of their companionship simmers a deeper, unspoken longing—a desire for healing that goes beyond herbs.
John must confront the shadows of his past, a journey fraught with pain. Can he open his heart to the possibility of love and acceptance, allowing Catriona's warmth to melt the icy barriers he's built around himself? And will Catriona's nurturing spirit be enough to mend a heart that's been battered by war?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A lovely short read. But there are chapters missing. It skips from chapter 9 to chapter 12. Would have given 5 stars otherwise.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I love novellas but I felt like I missed an entire chapter. It was a unique story though. Very positive and interesting with little steam but still felt the romantic tension.
