Miri of Shenandoah County

It's 1865, and the Civil War continues to drag on. Pembroke has become a refuge for many of the ladies in town who have had their homes confiscated by soldiers. The dormitory is now used as a hospital, and Miri, a young widow, volunteers there as a nurse. Her heart still aches every single day for her husband, Burton.

When she's charged with the care of Captain Nate Alley, she's certain she's never met such a difficult patient in her entire life. Yet there's something about him...

Captain Alley realizes he isn't the easiest of patients to care for. But the beautiful young woman hovering over him with invisible angel wings works her way into his heart before he realizes it. He adores her; yet along with her kind spirit, is a fiercely independent streak he feels compelled to deal with.

And deal with it, he will.
