Ordered to subdue the rebellious estate of Lady Arianne Langland in fifteenth-century England, the arrogant Lord Tristan Carrowe finds himself torn between duty and love when he falls for his opponent.

Feared by all Englishmen and known only as the Blackbird, the infamous highwayman was really the stunning Morgana Bracewell. And though she was an aristocrat who had lost her name and family, nothing had prepared the well-bred thief for her charming victim. Even as she robbed Lord Phillip Greyfriars blind, she knew his roving eye had seen through her rogue's disguise - and into her heart. Now, the wickedly handsome peer would stop at nothing to possess her, and it would take all Morgana's cunning not to surrender to a man who would accept no ransom for her love.
