Lady Sofia Howard is richly dowered and the ward of her
powerful cousin, King Edward of England. Willful,
independent, and full of mischief, she foils every attempt
the king makes to betroth her to an acceptable nobleman.
But at age 12, Sofia falls head over heels in love when
she
looks across a sea of people at a fair and into the eyes
of
a handsome knight, Sir Tobin de Clare. Sofia and Tobin are
thrown together on occasion but no one could have
predicted
the fireworks that erupt when King Edward betroths Sofia
to
Tobin without her knowledge or consent. While there is no
denying the passion that blazes between them, Sofia
wonders
if she'll ever really know the hard-edged knight. At the
same time, Tobin struggles to come to terms with the depth
of his feelings for his impossible wife. Each has
emotional
scars from their childhood. Sofia needs to know that she
is
loved by Tobin for herself alone and not for just her rich
dower. But when fate intervenes with war, hostages, and
duty to his king, the arrogant Tobin may make one wrong
decision too many and lose Sofia forever.
