Short description

When Aileen is captured by the Hawk of Inverfyre - an alluring and dangerous warrior - she feels both powerful attraction and uncertainty about her own role in his plan to reclaim his rightful legacy. Her visions of their shared past could be madness - or the key to ensuring the survival of both of them. Will the Hawk heed her counsel? Or does he only wish an heir? Does she dare love this warrior?

Extended description

Dear Reader:

Alluring and dangerous, the Hawk of Inverfyre came to rest at my father’s house, his motives unknown. His seduction was breathtaking. I resisted him, this enigmatic warrior, but his kiss transported me to a time and place where his relentless pursuit and my passionate surrender made perfect sense.

’Twas then I erred. My defenses harried, I was tricked into marriage by the Hawk and taken by force to his lawless castle. I have vowed to flee: The grounds abound with rogues and whores, and the servants whisper of murdered wives. And yet, his dizzying touch hints that we have lived here before - he as the castle’s intrepid founder and I as his betrayed lover. (Read more) Dear Reader:

’Twas then I erred. My defenses harried, I was tricked into marriage by the Hawk and taken by force to his lawless castle.

And yet, his dizzying touch hints that we have lived here before - he as the castle’s intrepid founder and I as his betrayed lover.

Am I the bride who will break the spell of Inverfyre? Or have I been captured by a scheming sorcerer, only to be ravished and discarded like so many before?
