About This Book
She was a Lady destined for an arranged marriage. He was a Squire sworn to defend a desperate cause. They loved each other over years of longing — in a world that kept them agonizingly apart.
EVERARD OF GUILLOME — the young squire who rescues a beautiful girl from rape, only to ravish her himself. Though he thinks her merely a peasant, he finds himself falling hopelessly in love.
LADY THAISA — of the streaming golden hair and pale creamy skin, whose sparkling eyes, blue as gentians, shine with a love to which she can never fully abandon herself. She is rushed into marriage with the old, violent — and madly jealous — Gilbert of Barbosa.
HUGH OF JAFFA — Everard's master, a libertine who enjoys all kinds of women. But the only one he truly loves is his beautiful cousin...
MELISANDE — a strong, ambitious beauty, determined to become Queen at any cost. Even a lovely marriage to a much older man...
