She desired his heart, but he'd given her that already. She asked for his mind, as well. He could work on that. But what kind of man was he to never have a body to give her, to never love her as she deserved? Humiliation cloaked him, its scent worse than death. For death was final, the end of all things, but this uselessness he must live with and look her in the eye as well. ----- Harmon Ranger went off to war, a Confederate soldier full of bravado and courage. But two years later, minus his legs, he only wants to die. He is half a man, now, and no man at all. There is no recovering from this. Except his fiance, Linnea Hewitt, says differently. There is life in what remains, she insists, and in her arms, the love he left behind. A powerful short story of love and peace by best-selling author, SUZANNE D. WILLIAMS.
