This Day is Ours by Gretchen Jeannette
This Day is Ours is all that a historical romance should be and more—gripping, romantic without being maudlin, beautifully true to the time. (Reedsy Discovery) All the aspects of the novel—characterization, dialogue, setting, and pace—are skillfully brought together to create an immersive love story that transports readers back to fascinating times. (BlueInk Starred Review)
The old man’s eyes clouded with such sudden torment that Alexandra placed a consoling hand on his arm. “A word to the wise, my dear,” he said. “Don’t squander your life on what others expect rather than what you desire. You will never feel complete if you allow your heart to become a place of compromise.”

The American Colonies, 1776
As the flames of rebellion spread across a divided land, a shadowy figure prowls the streets of Philadelphia. Known only as Jack Flash, rebel highwayman, he preys on aristocrats loyal to the British Crown. The unpredictable outlaw always manages to elude his foes, until the night he encounters a Loyalist lady whose fiery spirit could spell his doom.
Alexandra Pennington has her future well planned when a chance encounter turns her world upside down. Betrothed to a blue-blooded king’s man, the young widow becomes entangled with a red-blooded rebel activist fiercely opposed to British rule. The sensible course for her is clear, but her bond with the notorious rogue will test her loyalty not only to her king but also to the man she vowed to marry.
Set against the epic struggle for American independence, This Day is Ours threads the ferocity of war and the price of loyalty with a love forged in the fire of revolution.
