A thrilling medieval with a pinch of paranormal!
An English Knight....
Sir Braden de Bremont guards his secret gift, keeping others at arm's length, trusting no one outside of his family. When he's injured during a mission in Berwick, Scotland, he's forced to remain until he heals, while protecting a lady from a powerful lord determined to kill her family as a warning to others with English ties.
A Scottish Lady....
Lady Ilisa Douglas is haunted by the terrible events she witnessed during the attack on Berwick when thousands were killed. She now trusts no one, especially English knights. Yet the exact kind of man she's learned to fear is the only one who steps forward to protect her from a murderous plot. Secretive yet bold, handsome and strong, Braden has Ilisa questioning all she once believed with his gentle embrace and passionate kisses.
An irresistible temptation....
In order to expose the lord willing to kill for his cause, Braden and Ilisa agree to marry in name only to attend the lord's upcoming gathering. Feigning the part of an attentive husband to the beautiful lady who tempts him with her cautious smiles and tender touch is no hardship for Braden but makes it nearly impossible to keep his secret. Ilisa knows more than her heart is at stake in this terrible game, for if they fail, the King of England will march again on Scotland.
