One Wore Blue

By Heather Graham

Book Overview

Heather Graham's seductive Civil War trilogy begins with an unlikely Yankee forced to choose between loyalty to the cause and the love of a Southern belle. The privileged daughter of a Virginia plantation owner, Kiernan Miller can't imagine that her idyllic life will ever change--nor her days in the company of her devastatingly handsome neighbor, Jesse Cameron, a boy who returns her desire, kiss by tempestuous kiss. Then Jesse commits the one sin that Kiernan can never forgive: He abandons his roots for the Union army. Though Kiernan marries another, a part of her will always love the rebel in blue. To follow his conscience, Jesse Cameron must sacrifice his heart. He deserts his hometown, turns against his own brother, and rides away from the woman he loves. But he vows that it will not be forever. Now, bringing the war to Kiernan's front door, Jesse has returned as the enemy, intent on winning back the widow with emerald eyes and sun-kissed hair--the beauty who has branded him a traitor.

Customer Reviews

What a wonderful book! A "must read!"

Definitely a keeper. Great story, never a dull moment, lots of love. I agree there's nothing like a good civil war story with love mixed in. And this one is a powerful one to read. Don't pass it up! I am now looking forward to getting And One Wore Gray!

A Great Civil War Romance

I read this book years ago and picked it up agian. The story of Kiernan and Jesse is very touching. Kiernan and Jesse grew up together and Keirnan has always loved him so she is devestated when the war between the states causes Jesses to choose the side of the blue instead of the grey. Finding this unforgivable Kiernen turns her back on her love and marries another. As the war goes on Kiernan becomes a widow and is responisble for her husbands brother and sister and just when things are getting real bad Jesse rides up and saves the day (or at least the Plantation). The story is strong and a lot of past history is woven in throughout between all of the characters. From a historic stand point there is a lot of historic fact but not so much that it gets heavy. One Wore Blue is the beginning of a great trilogy. Don't miss it.

Another success by Graham!

A great partner to "and one Wore Gray"! Heather Graham writes incredible romances. Not trashy, but kept me breathless. The men in the story are just dreamy... I hated the book to end! Graham weaves a tale that blends right into the history..from clothing descriptions, to accents. Once again, impossible to put down!

The Best Series ! ! !

You have to love historical romances. It is one hot book! And the other 2 are just as good which I know is unusual in a series. But you must read And One Wore Gray, & And One Rode West. The three books are about 2 brothers that are on the opposite sides of the war and the sister that was left to tend to the plantation. There is also 3 other books in a series that was written by Sandra Brown. Texas! Lucky, Texas! Chase, and Texas! Sage. Again 2 brothers and a sister. Great books. But don't start them unless you have lots of time. You won't want to put them down.
