For Love or Honor





For Love or Honor is the latest book in Sarah M. Eden's The Jonquil Family series.  As with all of the books by Sarah Eden that I have read, this was a very clean and proper tale.  The main difference is that this tale had a much darker tale to tell.  The year is 1815, and Stanley Jonquil is returning on a medical leave, from his time overseas fighting in the Napoleonic wars.  Stanley is not returning the upbeat and jolly man that he had been when he left; instead, Stanley is a man with damaged limbs and a spirit that had lost all hope!

Marjie is the young woman whom Stanley left behind, and whom has not received one word from this soldier, to even know if he is still alive.  Marjie and Stanley's entire family are shocked, when he suddenly shows up in London.  As Stanley and his family retire to their country estate (in hopes that Stanley will find some much needed healing), everyone soon find that his injuries are much deeper than what can be seen on the surface!

Hold on to see when and how healing will finally come to Stanley's soul!

This was yet again a great read from Sarah Eden.  I hope you do not miss it!
