Haven — Joanna Davis

Sometimes it's your own heart that betrays you... Lady Emeline Fairhaven is the uncommonly beautiful young widow in charge of her late husband's castle and all those who dwell within. Fiercely independent and loyal, she's long since given up hope for her own happiness with the handsome young soldier she once loved. All she wants now is to be left in peace and to be a good overseer to her people. Rowan Hawthorne started from nothing but rose quickly through the ranks of Edward III's army with his legendary skills on the battlefield. Now, he is a force to be reckoned with. More than anything else in life, he wants two things - power and revenge on the woman who broke faith with him years before. When the King rewards Rowan's battle prowess with the keys to Fairhaven Castle, he ensures that the fate of Lady Emeline is in Rowan's hands. The brilliant strategist lays his plans for the young widow with military precision. If he has his way she will soon bow to him, both in his bed and out of it.
