Description:

With a kingdom as a prize for the man who wins Lady Matilda’s hand, Simon of Longford knows he faces fierce competition. But since he’s more interested in vengeance on the lady’s sire than securing her father’s riches, he is ready to break all rules to possess her. He isn’t prepared for her to fall into his arms… Matilda plays a dangerous game to keep her virtue and send errant knights on their way, but she does not trust warriors of her father’s ilk.  Her amusement comes to an end when she is captured by a wayward knight who has never even tried to court her.  Submitting to his captivity for the sake of a ransom, Matilda sees no escape.  But as the hours stretch in the brooding lord’s company, she finds herself tempted by his rash proposals and enticed by his kisses more than she ever imagined…
