"Dearest Enemy" - это роман о временах Гражданской войны в США. Главная героиня книги, Сюзанна ЛеГранд, потеряла своего жениха, брата и родной дом от рук армии Юга. Но ее горе только укрепило ее решимость шпионить за Конфедерацией. Она проникла в общество Вашингтона, очаровывая всех вокруг и влюбляясь в командующего адмирала Митчелла Б. Лонгли из армии Юга. Она соблазняла, использовала и любила могущественного человека. Во время страстного экстаза Сюзанна забыла, что Митч - ее враг, и отдала свое тело и свое сердце. Но ее безжалостная предательство во имя Юга обернулось для Митча утратой всего - его командования, его людей и почти его жизни. Она оставила в своем следе разбитого и бездушного человека. Теперь дорогой для Сюзанны, ее дорогой враг, покажет ей, что сладкий поцелуй мести - игра, в которую он тоже может играть...
Вот описание книги на языке оригинала: When the ghosts of war come between lovers, its painful all too often. For perfect strangers become deadly enemies when caught up in the clash of opposing forces.

But under Washington's glittering mirages she sinks deeper. Falling into the grasping paws of admiral Mitchel B Longley in return for vital information, she forgets to consider him, as she had so many others lead the fray, but her the enemy. When the day of reckoning comes, only few have their hands clean of guilt.\nA woman who wears the scars of her wartime betrayals with pride isn’t expected to detect that the vindictive sting she'd bring herself would haunt her man with unquenchable doubt."Dearest Enemy" by Nan Ryan, is perfect for fans of the era as well as any reader looking for a riveting tale of precious moral bonds tempers by historical circumstance.

She seduced, used…and loved the powerful man.In the heat of ecstasy, Susanna forgot Mitch was her enemy—she surrendered her body and her heart.

And now Susanna's dearest love, her dearest enemy, will show her that the sweet kiss of vengeance is a game he, too, can play….
