Short description

Rolfe de Miron has returned home after five grueling years on crusade. The weary knight wants nothing more than to pick up the threads of the life he left behind—but one of those threads is the wife who once betrayed him. A lush beauty with a determined mind, Melissande has vowed to woo him back into her arms, kiss by heated kiss.

Extended description

Rolfe de Miron has returned home after five long years on crusade. Time and experience have changed him, but he’s still bitter over the scandalous actions of his young wife, Melissande, who painfully betrayed him. But she’s his wife, he needs an heir, and the years have added tantalizing new depth to her beauty. What’s a righteous man to do?

Melissande is a foolish girl no longer. She has made every effort to redeem herself since the scandal, and her tireless labors have earned her the respect of Rolfe’s people—including his mother. Yet Rolfe sees none of her hard work, only her failings. The only common ground they have is a very heated mutual attraction. What’s a determined wife to do?

Liked the book, but it was too short. (77 pages) A little more explicit than I usually read, but I did like the book.

Pretty steamy book. Loved it. This story was different in that on Melissande's side, she didn't realize what she had until she almost lost it. She had to work to redeem herself, accept the fall out for her mistakes and was willing to put herself out there to win Rolfe's confidence back. On Rolfe's side, he can forgive his wife and they can come to see what they really mean to each other. I haven't read many romances where the couple gets back together after someone has cheated. Usually the storyline is that once cheated on the male or female finds love with someone else. So though it was pretty raunchy for a shorter novel, it was a great read.
