This is a good post Civil War book. Holt Price comes home to Texas to find the woman he left behind when he went to war. The town's doctor asks Holt to stay with he and his daughter while he looks for his lost love. Eventually, he does find his lost love and realizes she's not what he thought she was and he's well on his way to falling in love with the doctor's daughter.
Leigh Greenwood is an awesome author. I try to read all of his books.
