The moment Rhys saw the stunning young woman selling her
exquisitely crafted pottery in the marketplace, he was
captivated. But the wealthy freemason would never have
guessed that just a few days later, a misunderstanding
would land Joan in the town stocks and he would become her
unlikely savior. After the grueling ordeal, Rhys tenderly
cares for Joan's bruised body -- and her bruised pride.
Yet he longs to do much more ... to satisfy the fire that
sparks between the pair the moment they are alone.
Rhys could not have known that Joan once enjoyed a more
privileged life. She'd had no choice but to become an
indentured servant, but she is determined to avenge the
crimes that ruined her family and destroyed her world.
When Rhys meets with her employer to buy pottery -- and
buys her instead -- Joan is furious. She vows to resist
falling under the spell of the handsome, imposing Rhys.
But she finds that her resolve quickly softens when
tempted by Rhys's powerful charms -- and she can only hope
to find a way to avoid surrendering to her potent
desire....
