Shes on the hunt for a hero... Luke Trenton, Viscount Merritt, returned from war a changed man. Battle stripped away his civility and brought out his inner beast. There is no charm or tenderness in him now only dark passions and a hardened soul. He has nothing to offer the starry-eyed, innocent girl who pledged her heart to him four years ago. But Cecily Hale isnt a girl any longer. Shes grown into a woman--one who wont be pushed away. She and Luke are guests at a house party when a local legend captures their friends imaginations. While the others plunge into the forest on a wild goose...er, stag chase, Cecilys on the hunt for a man. She has only a few moonlit nights to reach the real Luke...the wounded heart she knows still beats inside the war-ravaged body.
