TO ONE MAN SHE HAD PLEDGED HER TROTH -- TO ANOTHER SHE HAD SURRENDERED HER HEART...
MARSALI HAD LOVED RORY MACLEOD with all the innocent fervor of her being. Their betrothal had been the culmination of her dreams. But the bitter political struggle for the throne of England had taken Rory from her, brought him to the side of Prince Charles -- and condemned him to a fate unknown.
AFTER NEARLY SEVEN YEARS, all hope of Rory's survival had faded, along with Marsali's dreams of happiness. Then she met Captain Antoine Sainte Marie-Ross. He'd been near death when she'd found him, but had healed rapidly under her care. The love that grew between them was as inevitable as it was passionate.
THEN ONE DAY RORY REAPPEARED, and suddenly Marsali found herself caught in a cross-current of violence and heartbreak...on a mission to commit murder -- and forced to choose between the man she loved and a man she could never forget...
