A daring rescue. A marriage of convenience. A soldier and a courier who keep secrets from each other. What could go wrong?
New Jersey, 1776. Captain Mark Johnson just wants to go home. A Captain in the elite Partisan Corps, he's spent much of the war leading covert assignments and fighting the British. But Mark is starting to fray around the edges. How can he continue to serve his country when he startles at every gunshot?
Known only as the Couriers, a network of women on the Atlantic coast delivers supplies to the American troops. Rachel Staples will knit stockings and mold bullets all day long, but ask her to deliver supplies? She'd rather stay at home, thank you.
When a lethal group of British soldiers encamp outside of Rachel's town, she no longer has a choice but to take action. And when the redcoats capture an American soldier, what can she do but rescue him? Rachel's impulsive and daring rescue leads to her and Mark trapped in a compromising position. So they agree to a marriage of convenience. No feelings will be involved. None at all.
Escape to America's beginnings in this closed-door historical romance. There's action. There's adventure. There are women who throw knives and men who talk about their feelings. This is the first in the Couriers series, but can be read as a standalone.
