Duty requires sacrifice.but the heart will not be denied. At the time, pretending marriage to her middle-aged widower cousin seemed like the best way to escape a politically motivated
betrothal to a brutal knight. Now, her journey toward a new life has landed her in hot water-she's been waylaid by a local Norman baron who's mistaken her for a real bride. And he demands
First Night rights. Hot water turns to steam in a scalding night of passion.passion she has never known. And now must live without. Lord Geoffrey is entranced at first sight of the
Anglo-Saxon beauty, and finds that one night in her arms is not nearly enough. But all he can offer the low-born Matilda is a life in the shadows-as his mistress. Her head warring with her
heart, Matilda resigns herself to her duty in a masquerade of a marriage. It's a choice that could cost her life. For the knight who first sought her hand is back with murder on his mind.
Now it's Geoff who's faced with the ultimate choice: which is more precious.his estates or the love of the one woman who can heal his soul? Warning, this title contains the following: a
Norman baron who teaches an Anglo-Saxon beauty the medieval mambo in the bedroom. Men fight to the death for this lady's honor.
