After proving himself on the field of battle, Ramon de Segrave is
appointed to the Council of Barons by Richard the Lionheart. But
instead of taking his most formidable warrior on his latest
Crusade, the king assigns Ramon an even more dangerous task-woo and
win the Lady of Thistle Keep.
If only she'd yield her heart
Isabel of Camoys is a capable widow with no intention of
surrendering her valuable estate. She's fought long and hard for
her independence, and if the price is loneliness, then so be it.
She will not yield...even if she does find the powerful knight's
heated embrace impossible to ignore.
But when her land is threatened, Isabel reluctantly agrees to allow
Ramon and his army to defend the keep-knowing that the price may
very well be her heart.
