When Virginia is brutally rejected by the man she has loved for as long as memory serves her, she flees to the comforts of her aunt and uncle in London – a decision that unexpectedly leads her to the front lines of the Napoleonic wars.
Meanwhile, Elroy feels the sting of rejection himself, shunned by the woman he thought to be the love of his life. He embarks on a debauched effort to disgrace himself and his family, protesting their seeming lack of concern for his broken heart and society dreams.
When the crown prince demands that Elroy join the war effort to regain his honor he is shocked at who he finds on the battle fields, and how the raging war for his helpless heart is finally being won!
