His Lady of Iron is the first book in the Ladies of the Lamp series, following a group of nurses recently returned from the Crimean War, each bearing their own emotional scars. But does he deserve love after what he’s done? When his concerned sister hires a strong-minded nurse to bully him back to health, he slowly realises Clementine Ashby has the power to heal more than his wounded leg-if only he’ll let her.
Blaming himself for his elder brother’s death during the same ill-fated attack, Will rejects his title and family estate, and drowns his misery in whisky. Sir William St George doesn’t believe he deserves to recover from the leg wound he sustained during the infamous Charge of the Light Brigade. But can she trust this wayward baronet with her heart? As he slowly heals, they grow ever closer, despite her resolution to resist his charm. Plagued by memories of the soldiers she failed to save, Clem must harness every ounce of determination to help her handsome patient recover. She reluctantly takes a private position, caring for the charming yet self-indulgent injured war veteran Sir William St George, who is determined to sabotage his own recovery. Newly returned from the Crimean War, nurse Clementine Ashby is an embarrassment to her middle-class parents. An injured baronet hell-bent on self-destruction. An iron-willed nurse haunted by memories of the patients she failed to save.
