A strong-willed princess finds fiery passion with a roguishly handsome warrior in the New York Times–bestselling author’s medieval romance.
Crown Princess Thera of Mercia is fiercely independent and wholly devoted to her subjects. Yet she must marry before she can become Queen. The beauty’s reluctance to choose a husband has plunged her into peril far from home—and into the arms of a handsome rescuer.
Powerful, hot-blooded mercenary Saxxe Rouen has better things to do than fight a crowd of drunken brutes. After all, there is little profit in saving a demoiselle in distress—or is there? His valor should be repaid, if not in silver, then in another kind of reward: Lovely Thera will spend one night in his bed.
Once safe, Thera faces yet another danger: her attraction to the charming warrior. But as a battle of wits ensues, one night may lead to three. And a proud princess may discover the pleasure of surrendering her heart—while Saxxe may find the kingdom, and the love, he was truly meant to win . . .
