Joanna — Roberta Gellis

In A World Of Deceit And Danger, Love Was The Deadliest Risk Of All

Beautiful, iron-willed heiress to power, Joanna secretly burns with an explosive inner passion as wild and-- radiant as her flaming red hair. But her deepest emotions are tragically frozen by the cold fear of a man's tender love.

Ensnared in the violent lusts and dangerous intrigues of King John's decadent court, she defies every outward peril-only to come face-to-face with the terror in her own heart. Caught between willful pride and consuming desire, she struggles to avoid surrendering herself to the irresistible fires raging within her.
