Synopsis

From the New York Times bestselling author comes the fourth passionate romance in the Border Chronicles series.

Lady Cicely Bowen, daughter of the Earl of Leighton, is sent away by her father when her jealous stepmother threatens her safety. Soon the exiled Cicely becomes best friends with Lady Joan Beaufort, the king's cousin, and when Joan is married to King James I of Scotland she chooses Cicely as one of the ladies accompany her north.

At the Scot's court Cicely finds herself pursued by two men—elegant Andrew Gordon, the laird of Fairlee, and Ian Douglas, the laird of Glengorm, a rough-spoken border lord. When Ian kidnaps Cicely just as Andrew is about to propose, the royal court is sent into an uproar. The queen is demanding the return of her friend and the Gordons are threatening to set the border on fire. But the border lord is difficult to tame—and the lady's heart is even harder to claim.

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Sandy on September 23, 2013

I really enjoyed this story. In fact, I liked it so much I finished it in one weekend and it's over 400 pages. My only problem with Small's work is her descriptions of genitalia. Phrases like "steel rod", and "love bud" just seem ridiculous to me. Particularly since even in the 1400's they had actua......more

Goodreads review by TJ on November 14, 2009

This is such a hard one to rate. I loved it and hated it. I love the story of Cicily as we follow her life. I love that it is historically correct while staying interesting. I love that it helped me understand the challenges a woman faced during the 15th century. I hated that Ms. Small felt she need......more

Goodreads review by Brooke on August 13, 2010

Blah... This one made me more angry than the third one! I can't say much without giving the plot away... But it's sad. I started to hate the heroine halfway through the book... She's a little bit of a brat and extremely fickle. I was happy with the ending but the good does not outweigh the bad in my......more
