I so enjoyed reading Delle Jacobs' "His Majesty, The Prince of Toads". It was a moving, passionate and fun story of Sophie, a war orphan and the abandoned bride of wounded war captain and viscount, Lord Lucas Deverall. Both suffered before and since they last saw each other six years previously, on their unconsummated wedding night - and each has matured after that disastrous incident. Both Lucas and Sophie hold painful personal secrets they fear to reveal to another living soul. However, each needs the power of healing and forgiveness only found through accepting the love that Sophie has always held dear for Lucas, a love which he only discovers once he realizes he needs and wants her in his life.Ms. Jacobs' weaves a touching story of the effects of war on not just a soldier but also a young girl and shows us that two very lonely people can find happiness if they are brave enough to let at least one other person see their vulnerability.
