A
maiden to be saved . . .
During
the murderous assault on the village of Vaux , little “Ana” lost all she knew.
Then suddenly, out of the burning wreckage, a young man appeared and rescued
her from the horrors of the night. He proved to be a squire in a company of knights,
on their way to join the Crusades. At a neighboring village, he delivered her into
the care of a peasant couple who promised to love her. Before departing, he gifted
her with something to remember him by . . . the silver cross from around his
neck.
A
wrong to be righted . . .
After
a decade of fighting in the east, Sir Royce de Warrene returns to England a
celebrated knight. But he soon discovers the terrible mistake he made on that long-ago
night. The orphan girl was no peasant child, but an heiress of noble blood — Lady
Juliana Mandeville — and he deprived her of her birthright. He is charged with
a quest — to find her at once and restore her to her grandfather — by order of
the king!
Love
to be fulfilled, fated long ago . . .
Now
grown to womanhood, the stunningly beautiful and saucy “Ana” refuses to believe
the knight when he disrupts her wedding day, intent on taking her from those she
loves and to deliver her to strangers at the English court. She grips the
silver cross she wears, wishing her gallant squire could rescue her once more. Although
she cannot remember his face clearly and never knew his name, she has not forgotten
the night he saved her so long ago . . .
“Kathleen
Kirkwood at her best. She brings the pageantry, splendor and romance of
Medieval England to life. This is going to be a sure-fire winner.”
