Promised Land Rose Lerner

***This novella originally appeared in the Hamilton's Battalion anthology with linked stories by Courtney Milan and Alyssa Cole.***Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happily-ever-after... Donning men's clothing, Rachel left her life behind to fight the British as Corporal Ezra Jacobs-but life catches up with a vengeance at the siege of Yorktown, when she arrests an old love as a Loyalist spy. At first she thinks Nathan Mendelson hasn't changed one bit: he's annoying, he talks too much, he sticks his handsome nose where it doesn't belong, and he's self-righteously indignant just because Rachel might have faked her own death a little. She'll be lucky if he doesn't spill her secret to the entire Continental Army. Then Nathan shares a secret of his own, one that changes everything...
