Description
Risking it all for love and valor . . .
When Corporal Sean MacBranian awakens after being injured in battle, he is sure the luck o’ the Irish has run out on him. Or that he’s died and gone to Heaven. There can be no other explanation for the blond-haired, blue-eyed angel standing before him. But his “angel” is a truehearted lass named Ashlinn, and she wears a nurse’s uniform. Her tender ministrations have brought him back from the brink of death—and have given him a new reason for living.
Ashlinn knows their parting is inevitable; her handsome hero must return to the 69th infantry of the Union army, and there are no guarantees of his safe return. With most of her family already destroyed by the war ravaging America, she is sure she cannot survive another loss. Yet she feels powerless against the draw of Sean’s strong and steady heart. Neither time nor distance nor the danger of battle seems to lessen their bond. But when their secret letters are intercepted, the devoted nurse’s love will face the ultimate test . . .
“McCorkle knows how to tug at a reader’s heartstrings . . . readers fascinated by the Civil War and Irish-American history will be satisfied with this refreshing historical romance.” —RT Book Reviews, 4 stars

Advance Praise
“The historical genre has seen a lack of American-set historical romances, and McCorkle’s Honor Before Heart is one such remedy to that drought. Set during the U.S. Civil War, the romance follows a Union corporal and a nurse. Both characters have Irish heritage, and the most magical parts of the romance come from the way they share that heritage with each other in the midst of war…. The real conflict comes from the nature of war itself. McCorkle knows how to tug at a reader’s heartstrings with thoughts of loss during wartime, and readers fascinated by the Civil War and Irish-American history will be satisfied with this refreshing historical romance offering.”- RT Book Reviews, 4 stars
