Lady Cavaliers — Andrea Lee

MY LOVER, MY ENEMY
The reckless Lady Isabel Morden, 19, whose noble father is off fighting with the King's Cavaliers in the war against Cromwell's revolutionaries, falls into the hands of the enemy - in the person of Robert Wells, a disenfranchised young nobleman who fights on the side of Cromwell.

Sparks of passion and enmity light a blaze that unites them, then parts them until, after other loves, they come together in the shadow of the gallows.

The second generation takes up the story begun in the fiery union of Isabel and Robert in Barbados, then in the Colonies and, finally, in London during the great Plague and Fire, as Isabel and Robert's son vies with his blood-cousin for the love of the stormy Cindia Powell.
