About the book
(deWarenne Dynasty, #2) A spellbinding tale of passion, abduction and dangerous love… She is Mary, the beautiful daughter of the Scottish king—and a unwilling prisoner of the Norman invaders. The headstrong princess refuses to reveal her identity—even if it means sacrificing her virture. But in the arms of a dangerous enemy she discovers a powerful passion and a powerful promise. Brave and battle-hardened Stephen de Warenne is prepared to defend to the death that which is his by right of conquest—including the golden haired captive who awakens his soul’s most secret yearnings. For theirs is a passion that will not be denied—a magnificent fire that burns hotter and brighter than the blazing flames of war that engulf the land. Note- The deWarenne Dynasty is very vast and spans through multiple series, they can be read stand alone. * In chronological order, followed by the books that are distantly related The Conqueror (deWarenne Dynasty, #1) Promise of the Rose (deWarenne Dynasty, #2) The Game (deWarenne Dynasty, #3) Regency Era: The Prize (deWarenne Dynasty, #4) The Masquerade (deWarenne Dynasty, #5) The Stolen Bride (deWarenne Dynasty, #6) A Lady at Last (deWarenne Dynasty, #7) The Perfect Bride (deWarenne Dynasty, #8) Victorian Era: A Dangerous Love (deWarenne Dynasty, #9) An Impossible Attraction (deWarenne Dynasty, #10) The Promise (deWarenne Dynasty, #11) Contemporary Era: House of Dreams Related books: Scandalous Love (Bragg Saga, #6) After Innocence (Delanza, #2) The Awakening (a novella included in the anthology Heart of the Home)
