For Love or Honor

De: Sarah M. Eden

Narrado por: Aubrey Warner

From the moment they met, Marjie's heart has belonged to handsome Captain Stanley Jonquil, younger brother of the Earl of Lampton. But six long months ago, when Stanley's sense of honor required that he do as he had sworn and return to the continent to fight in defense of king and country, neither Stanley nor Marjie could have dreamed what the cost of his service would be. It has been ages since Stanley last wrote, and Marjie and the Jonquil family are plagued by his unknown fate - until the day he unexpectedly reappears.

Marjie's joy, however, is quickly shadowed by confusion - the aloof, battle-worn soldier before her is not the man he once was. In the wake of Stanley's blatant disinterest in renewing their acquaintance, Marjie's devastation turns to determination as she vows to help him find peace. But his scars run far deeper than anyone realizes. Despite his feelings for her, Stanley believes Marjie deserves a man whose hands are not stained with the violence of battlefields and whose mind and heart are not haunted by the horrors he has seen. Honor requires Stanley to return once more to the life he has grown to despise, one he knows will destroy him in the end, even as his heart beckons him to stay with Marjie, the only woman he could ever love, and the promise, at last, of redemption.

More Jonquil Brothers 💕

Another wonderful addition to the Jonquil brothers series; this one featuring our war hero Stanley and his young love Marjie —- with of course lots of great updates on the other Jonquils, particularly Philip and Sorrel.

Gave me the feels

Love the Jonquils!! The emotions captured by the author from both Stanley and Margie’s perspectives just squeezed my heart. I felt the struggle with both of them. The theme of loyalty throughout echoes the many tough choices that have to be made in life that aren’t always crystal clear. Looking forward to the next in the series.

Poignant story

I laughed. I cried. I not only loved the story of Cap’n and Mrs. cap’n, but I love how Sarah weaves in the family characters that we know and love so well. It truly makes for a wonderful experience to see generations that we get to see interacting and loving each other.

Heartwarming, laughter and tear making

This is a beautifully written and read romantic story. After finding that Sarah Eden's books were available in audio, I bought them all again.

Very emotional!

I think this is the most thought provoking of the Jonquil brothers stories. Stanley is so broken by war and I cried so many times as I listened to his pain and anguish over all he has been through. Margie loves him so very much and is so saddened by his distance and aloof behavior. I wondered clear until the end, if all would be well and they would get their happily ever after.
