The Lady of the Forest
When her elderly husband dies, Lady Katherine fakes her own
death and disappears into the forest with others escaping the brutish new lord.
Determined to protect her people, she knocks the wrong man senseless. But Lord
Henry isn’t an enemy, he’s the brother of her childhood friend. Although his
tender confidence tempts her, she’s bound by duty.
Henry of Chauvere has found the one lady he wants for his
own, never mind she’s tied him hand and foot. When he learns the king has
ordered her to wed Stonehill’s ruthless new master, he insists Kate seek haven
with his sister. But she won’t desert her friends. Henry vows to solve her problem,
provided he catches a traitor before the threat from Kate’s past catches her.
When a daring rescue compels Henry and Kate to join forces, their attraction
grows into love. If only duty didn’t drive them apart.

EXCERPT #7
“You walloped him good, Cade.” Jamie sidled over to stare at
the unmoving figure. “A shame he’s an enemy. He’s a fierce one. And strong, by
God. He took you for a good ride ’afore you clobbered him. I watched from the
other tree. Wish it’d been me that done it. Look at that knot on his head.”
“He hit a rock when he fell.” Luckily the impact stunned him
enough to allow the men to subdue him. She’d been foolish to think a blow to
the head with her knife hilt would do the job. Still, he’d been brought down.
That’s what mattered.
