Description
Recently widowed, Dr. Margaret Boynton leaves England and sails to Africa. She finds herself up against dangerous animals and terrifying witch doctors. Determined never to fall in love again, Margaret finds her most formidable enemy is her own heart when she meets the enigmatic Jeremiah Lyon.
A scoundrel whose scarred face and ice-blue eyes make strong women weak, Jeremiah Lyon, legendary great white hunter, resents his assignment to escort a middle-aged doctor to the mission hospital. She isn't what he expected...and neither is his unguarded reaction to her.
When a secret society of cannibals kidnap Margaret, can Lyon rescue her before their chances for a future are destroyed forever?

After a great tragedy Margaret needs a change of environment and decides to go to Affriva of all places. Not only is she a woman traveling alone, but she is also a doctor! Here she meets many obstacles in her path, Lyon included. In his opinion, a petite white woman has no business going into the jungle, but she surprises him and the attraction between them flares up. But being in the jungle can be dangeros in many ways, something these two of course will discover.
Both MCs have experienced great loss and are struggling to move on and not let it affect their lifes too much. The story is about acceptance, discovering strengths in yourself and open up your heart to new people and places after heartache. The setting in 1910 Africa was believable, the descriptions of the wilderness and tribes were detailed and vivid. The romance part is somewhat chaste, fitting that time's accepted behaviour on the subject, but itis also sprinkled with the freedom and boldness you can find in the African jungle where western societyrules have no influence.
A charming read that can be recommended. Reviews will also be posted on Amazon and Goodreads.
