Vanished Days by Susanna Kearsley
It's 1707 and Scotland is suffering unrest during the Jacobite rebellion. Lily Graeme comes forward to claim her husband's wages after his death in service of his country. The problem is in proving they were married at all. Adam Williamson is one of the men on the committee to decide on the validity of her claim, but he finds himself less than impartial because he's very attracted to her. The story jumps back and forth throughout Lily's life, with a lot of historical and political information of the times. I loved Lily's story, but I got a bit lost in the complicated history. Overall probably 3.5 stars for me rounded up to 4.
