Barely a Lady / Eileen Dreyer 418 p.

Jack Wyndham divorced Olivia Grace years before, but finding him wounded on the battlefield, dressed in a French uniform, she is goaded into action to save him being named a traitor and to haul him back to a makeshift hospital in the home of Lady Kate. Jack awakes with only the memory that Olivia is still his wife nothing of the past five years. These five years have been horrific for her-- very limited opportunites for work, cast out by her family, and hunted by his family. To aid his recovery she pretends to be his loving wife. With a cast of interesting characters, she seeks to clear his name and perhaps hers, too. His cousin Gervaise seems to be around when there is trouble…whisperings of her gambling problem, flirtations and love affairs. Will Jack remember all? Clear his name? Find love again?
