Muriel Roscoe has come to India to live with her father, a general. When the fort where they are staying comes under attack, General Roscoe charges the dauntless, wisecracking soldier Nick Ratcliffe with the responsibility for getting Muriel away in safety. The two manage to escape, but the experience is harrowing for Muriel. Meanwhile, Nick has fallen in love with her. Will she ever be able to shake off her old prejudices towards him or her association of him with their near debacle and see him for who he really is? Can she reconcile the fearsome creature she witnessed during their escape and the good-humored man beloved by his family and friends? ( Scarbo) (0 hr 20 min)

Loved this book!

I stayed up all night listening. The readers were all good. I got so involved in the characters and their stories that I didn’t want it to end. Such an unusual protagonist - not big, handsome and dashing, but small, wrinkled and odd. Sigh, if only we could all have such eternal, self sacrificing love in our lives.
very fitting title.
