A Splendid Passion — Marianne Evans

SHE CRAVED ADVENTURE!

Even if she had to shear her hair and wear boots and pants to get it. But Phemie didn't want to be a man.


SHE WANTED TO BE ALL THE WOMAN SHE COULD BE...

to awaken pure love in the heart of a jaded courtier, to lose her innocence to a pirate, to discover the mysteries of far islands in the arms of a man who had seen everything.


SHE WANTED TO DECIDE HER OWN FATE

and marry a man she chose herself, even if she must thwart the best-laid plans of the King of France.


HER LIFE WAS MEANT TO BE LIVED, HER LOVE WAS MEANT TO BE GIVEN WITH A SPLENDID PASSION
