Heart of Vengeance — Tracy Cooper-Posey

A woman in hiding...
In order to find her father's killer, Helena of York is forced to play the most dangerous game of her life. The Saxon noblewoman, now an outlaw, must adopt a false identity and pose as a Norman in the courts and great halls of Richard I's England. Should she be unmasked, her life will be forfeit. But Helena is willing to pay any price for her revenge.

A man shunned...
Stephen, Count of Dinan, once Richard's greatest friend and most able knight, finds himself an outcast from the court for reasons shrouded in mystery. Now known as the "Black Baron", he finds himself friendless in a glittering world he has come to despise.

Two dangerous destinies...
The only goal in Stephen's life is to restore his honor and once again serve his king. The only desire in Helena's life is to kill the man who destroyed her father and her future. Then the "Black Baron's" suspicions draw him into Helena's web of deceit and, together, they find themselves entangled in a greater conspiracy that threatens the throne of England itself... and two embattled hearts that have allowed themselves to be touched by love.
