1347. Calais has finally fallen and Alaun de Montisfryth, first Earl of Montisfryn, powerful Marcher lord and companion of Edward III, is dispatched back to England with orders to secure the Welsh border. Halfway home, pride tempts Montisfryn to attend a tournament held by his family’s old foes at Versallet Castle. Eloise de Versallet, the widowed Lady de Cannar, rules her father’s castle with a tongue sharper than any sword. She has no great opinion of men in general and of knights in particular. Montisfryn and Eloise meet and sparks fly. He is intrigued. She is irritated. He is under royal edict to wed. An experienced lady, well-born, still young, and exceedingly well-endowed with both wealth and beauty, Eloise is a matrimonial prize beyond compare-and has vowed to remain unwed. Potent and powerful, will Montisfryn be able to breach her walls, storm her castle, and succeed where all others have failed? Or will Eloise, haughty and defiant to the last, prevail? The gauntlet is flung, the challenge accepted. And desire enters the fray. A Novel of 140,000 words. A medieval historical romance in the classic style, this work contains multiple explicit love scenes. 'When it comes to dishing up lusciously sensual, relentlessly readable historical romances, Laurens is unrivalled.' Booklist 'Laurens’s writing shines.' Publishers Weekly 'One of the most talented authors on the scene today...Laurens has a real talent for writing sensuous and compelling love scenes.' Romance Reviews 'Stephanie Laurens never fails to entertain and charm her readers with vibrant plots, snappy dialogue, and unforgettable characters.' Historical Romance Reviews. 'Stephanie Laurens plays into readers’ fantasies like a master and claims their hearts time and again.' Romantic Times Magazine 3
