Risking danger, she finds hope and love

The Irregulars return safely home to 1803 England, their magic strengthened by their heroic efforts at Dunkirk. But Tory is shocked when she realizes that the ever deepening relationship with Allarde will cost him everything. If Tory really loves him, she must walk away so he can find a non-magical mate and avoid being disinherited. But does she have the strength to leave the love of her life?

Cynthia's heroic efforts at Dunkirk have won her the respect of the Irregulars, but her sharp tongue keeps everyone at a distance. Does she have the courage to risk love?

Then the Irregulars are drawn into a dangerous attempt to rescue a vitally important scientist from Nazi-occupied France. Countless lives are at stake, but when the mission goes awry, will they all survive to return home?
