About the book
Darkly handsome and rich beyond imagining, the bold English conqueror they called the Black Lyon, Ranulf was a man no woman could win--until he found a tawny-haired beauty named Lyonene, whose fiery spirit matched his own. Through a whirlwind romance and stormy marriage, she endured perilous danger to be by his side, but web of vicious lies, spread by a jealous vixen drove Lyonene from her home and Ranulf, and into entrapment across the Irish Sea. One man could save her--only the Black Lyon could destroy the ruthless plot that threatened their marriage and renew the bond of love they had vowed would never be broken.
