If you love Regency romances, "His Impassioned Proposal" doesn't disappoint. The opening of this book hooked me. Stephen is such a tortured hero. He's had a lot thrust on him in a short time--his war injuries, the death of his parents. When we first meet Stephen, he's wallowing in self-pity in a drunken stupor. When he realizes how much his self-pity has hurt Jane, the love of his life, Stephen sets out to reform himself and earn her love. Jane loves Stephen, but because of an incident in her childhood, she fears the Stephen who's come home from war may not be the same Stephen she fell in love with. I enjoyed watching Stephen grow and take charge of his life, and the way he set out to woo Jane all over again. Jane is a sweet, strong heroine, who deserves her HEA with Stephen. A good read all the way around.
