Champion of Her Heart Though Marion Warenne's past was but a dim nightmare, her present held a vision of glory - the formidable Dunstan de Burgh. A fierce knight who was determined to win their battle of wills, all the while protesting mightily that he did not believe in love. Dunstan de Burgh, Baron of Wessex, had ofttimes heard himself likened to a wolf on the prowl: fierce, brave and ever-alert to danger. How so, then, could one soft-eyed damsel escape his watchful eye time and time again? And even more dangerous, slip past his guard and find her way into his heart?

Sleeping With The Enemy It was the last thing Elene Fitzhugh intended. She only prayed her array of sharpened daggers was ample protection against Geoffrey de Burgh's gentle coaxing and honeyed lies, for she was determined to be no man's bride-king's command be damned!

Yet could he ever truly take to wife a woman with so fierce and passionate a soul?

Maiden-Warrior-Lover! This was the litany Simon de Burgh chanted whenever he gazed upon Bethia Burnel. Gifted with fighting prowess to rival any of his knights, the maddening woman had laid siege to his vision of how the world should be - and captured his heart in the battle! Simon de Burgh was infuriating - full of raw power and male conviction, even when Bethia had him bound hand and foot, deep in her forest lair. But she would prove to His Arrogance that she could best him yet again - despite her heart's thundering refrain that she had finally met her match!

He Was Like A Young God, Tall and Blessed With Startling Beauty. But Stephen DeBurgh appeared all too human to Brigid L'Estrange. Self-indulgent and too impressed with himself, the rakish knight seemed unworthy of his noble heritage. And yet...AND YET! Why then did she sense a power and RIGHTNESS about him that answered her heart's deepest yearnings? Escorting the strong-willed Brigid across the marshy wastes of Wales strained Stephen's temper near the breaking point. NEVER had he encountered a more contentious yet arousing female than Mistress L'Estrange - whose eyes bespoke a destiny that would change his life forever!

His Whole Family Was Cursed! How else to explain this rash of marriages by the Brothers de Burgh? Robin de Burgh alone swore to remain unwed, despite ironic fate, which used foul murder to mate him with The One - spirited Sybil, a damsel in distress who insisted she needed him not! When convent walls became more prison than refuge, restless novice Sybil knew 'twas time to leave. But never did she expect to trade her wimple for a wedding veil, even when Sir Robin de Burgh, knight most impudent, demanded she put her life - and her heart - in his hands!

But his bitter pilgrimage is interrupted by a very determined damsel who holds him to his knight's vow—to protect and serve! Sabina Sexton knows her reluctant rescuer is skeptical about her quest.
