When
Lynx de Warenne, Edward Plantagenet's most prized warrior, invaded Dumfries
castle, he took possession of Jane Leslie's home--and soon wanted something
more from the headstrong lass. Desperate for an heir, he proposed a handfasting:
a Scottish custom whereby a man can lawfully take a woman into his bed, then,
after a year and a day, the couple can either wed or part. Any child of that
union is deemed legitimate. Jane had no choice but to surrender to the invader's
knowing touch. . . . Fearless on the battlefield, Lynx was afraid to love. But
Jane slowly stole into his heart. And as the fires of war raged around them,
amid treacherous foes and brilliant intrigues, who would have thought that two
such unlikely partners would fall in love--or that their breathless passion
for each other would outlast . . .
