With over five million copies of her novels in print, New York Times bestselling author Virginia Henley has enchanted readers worldwide. Now she sweeps us back to an intensely romantic, tumultuous time in Scottish history. . . .
When Lynx de Warenne, Edward Plantagenet's most prized warrior, invaded Dumfriescastle, he took possession of Jane Leslie's home--and soon wanted something more from the headstrong lass. Desperate for an heir, he proposed a handfasting: a Scottish custom whereby a man can lawfullytake a woman into his bed, then, after a year and a day, the couple can either wed or part. Any child of that union is deemed legitimate. Jane had no choice but to surrender to theinvader's knowing touch. . . .
Fearless on the battlefield, Lynx was afraid to love. But Jane slowly stole into hisheart. And as the fires of war raged around them, amid treacherous foes and brilliant intrigues, who would have thought that two such unlikely partners would fall in love--or that their breathlesspassion for each other would outlast . . . Virginia Henley is the author of fourteen romantic novels, including the New York Times bestsellers"Seduced" and "Desired." Her work has been translated into ten languages. A recipient of the Romantic Times Lifetime Achievement Award, she lives inSt. Petersburg, Florida, and Ontario, Canada.
