About this ebook
“Beautifully captures the flavor of medieval castle life and the intrigue-rich Plantagenet court. Passionate and romantic . . . a rare delight.” —Booklist (starred review)
There were worse things than to be shackled in marriage to a handsome, powerful lord who desired her—but Marguerite of Alencon was bred to be consort to a king and could not abide her fate. She had great power as Henry Plantagenet’s mistress, and to be set aside and promised as a bride to noble Orrick of Silloth was an insult she could not bear!
Orrick knew his reluctant bride was a creature of the court with many secrets. And yet, Marguerite of Alencon would make him a perfect partner—accomplished and gracious, a true Lady of the Keep—if only she could release her turbulent past and embrace a passionate future . . . in his arms.
Praise for Terri Brisbin
“A welcome new voice . . . you won’t want to miss.” —Susan Wiggs, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

Having read almost all of Terris books, I must admit, this one didn't have as strong of a plot as most.... With saying that, I still thoroughly enjoyed this book. The end of the story was unpredictable, which was a nice change.
