Set in England 1813, The Lost Lieutenant is reminiscent of a time when class distinctions were prevalent and women’s rights non-existent. However, unlike many books set in that era, rather focusing on pomp and pageantry, The Lost Lieutenant is all about the hearts of the characters.
Meet Evan Eldridge, an ordinary man, and inadvertent war hero who is suddenly thrust into the role of an upper-crust noble, an undesired role for which he’s completely unprepared.
Diana Seaton may have been born the daughter of a duke, but her home life is nothing short of distasteful. Physically and emotionally abused by her father, constantly harassed by her half-brother and motherless, Diana’s heart remains pure.
When Evan and Diana’s paths unwittingly collide, a beautiful story of genuine love slowly unfolds. Complete with several plots twists and turns, The Lost Lieutenant will certainly keep readers eager to see what happens next.
An excellent story by Erica Vetsch.the
