Heart of Denver Aspen Gold AwardHistorical romance Regency eraAlexander Murray knows one cannot exist without a brain yet Daphne Farnham may be the exception. Her head contains nothing but rainbows shoes bonnets pink frills and butterflies. Even her fluffy dog is useless. But the war with Napoleon is finally over and the surgeon is sure he can put up with a couple of months of the cloth-headed chit until they reach England.Did that naval officer have his sense of humor surgically removed? It is bad enough Alexander Murray has no fashion sensibilities at all never smiles at her like other men do and doesnt adore her darling pup Pompom. He had the gall to proclaim her useless when everyone knows its Daphne Farnham whos the best at picking out just the right ensemble for any social occasion. Fortunately she only has to put up with the sour Scotsman until they reach England.But when their ship goes down the dour doctor (after a fashion) the dizzy damsel (more or less) and the darling (and potentially delicious) doggy are about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime as unlikely companions castaway on a desert island. One of them may have fleas but its the two humans who will find themselves wanting to scratch a certain itch.
