Athelyna Des Moutiers has lived the better portion of her
years in a convent, isolated from the harsh realities of her
world, and has dedicated her life in service to a higher
calling. When her father dies, her manipulative older
brother negotiates a betrothal contract to one of the King’s
knights, surrendering her to a creature utterly foreign—a
man. A wedding present, an ancient brooch with mythical
powers, foretells a future she cannot deny, so she accepts
her fate. Can she win the love of her husband, a stubborn
brute equally resistant to marriage?
Demetrius de Blackbourne is a Nautionnier Knight, a pious
man, and a virgin who, much like his bride, has vowed to
devote himself to divine endeavors, and his plans do not
include a wife. When he is tasked with settling a
troublesome region, and installing the King’s new garrison,
he neglects the most important charge of all—his lady. But
the gentle spirit and quiet strength of Athelyna manifest a
temptation he can neither ignore nor deny, and Demetrius
finds himself fighting for the one thing he never thought he
would want—her heart.
