His Captain (The Regency Lords)

Summary

A wounded hero... A mysterious healer... A secret enemy hell-bent on their destruction...

When a cannon explodes, killing half his men, Captain Reginald (Reggie) St. Clair is severely wounded. Physicians proclaim he’ll never walk again. Injured and in pain, he retreats to the Scottish Highlands. In the remote castle where he spent his youth, he hopes to escape pity and ridicule from society and his family. And maybe, just maybe, he'll gain strength from the happy memories ghosting through the old stone walls.

Johnnie Sloan, a healer with a mysterious past, expects to mend Captain St. Clair’s injured body as well as his broken spirit. He does not intend to fall in love.

In the shadows, a secret enemy plots. Just when Reggie thinks life might be worthwhile again, he's accused of a crime. Not only is his freedom at stake, scandal threatens Johnnie's safety as well.

Can the captain and the healer, with his underworld connections, defeat censure and betrayal to find happiness together?
