Tempted — Virginia Henley

All men lusted for the firebrand they called Flaming Tina, famed for the molten fire in her hair -- and for the hot temper running fierce through the noble Scots blood of Lady Valentina Kennedy. Forced into marriage with the fearsome warrior of an enemy clan, Tina vowed to use her wild beauty to gain mastery over Lord Ramsay Douglas.

Women hungered to be pressed against his steely chest ... and men feared the brawn and rage of Black Ram Douglas. Ram swore he would make the defiant Valentina a dutiful wife after he had broken her hellion's pride. But the girl he set out to tame became the woman who taught him what it meant to be ardently, maddeningly, gloriously...Tempted.
