The first time he laid eyes on her she had come to his
rescue with a sword in her hand. Still Morvan Fitzwaryn
had never seen any woman who aroused his interest and his
passion more than the unconventional Breton warrior
beauty. Anna de Leon took him into her castle and nursed
him back to health, little knowing the spark of desire she
was feeding with her caring ministrations. It wasn't long
before Morvan had vowed to protect and conquer this
unconquerable woman with all the sensual weapons at his
disposal.
For her part, Anna de Leon had no interest in men as
lovers or husbands. She was used to commanding men in
battle. But she suddenly had the strangest feeling that
her well-fortified defenses could be breached by this dark-
eyed, smolderingly handsome English knight. When her
castle is beseiged by an old enemy who claims both her and
her lands, Anna finds she has no choice but to accept
Morvan's aid--even if the enemy outside her walls is no
match for the ally within, who with every tantalizing kiss
and forbidden embrace threatens to make her a prisoner of
her own fiery passion.
