The Fire and the Fury

Amid the flames of royal revolt, their hearts burned with a fierce, wild love. Elizabeth of Riveaux is the most beautiful—and defiant—nobelwoman in all of Britain. After a disastrous first marriage left her with a secret shame, she refuses to accept any man. As royal factions war for England's throne, she and her knights-in-arms go to Harlowe, the border castle that is her birthright.

All he demands in return is for the forcefully independent Elizabeth to surrender—completely—to the power of their love.

faced the embroidered black hawk on his red silk tunic. Her eyes traveled upward
