A Knight's Vengeance - Paperback

by Catherine Kean (Author)

Will he sacrifice everything to avenge a wrongful death... even the love of a lifetime?

England, 1192. Geoffrey de Lanceau burns for revenge. Refusing to believe his slain father died a traitor, the embittered lord vows to see justice done, no matter how dishonorable the path. So when he rescues a beautiful damsel and realizes she is the daughter of his sworn enemy, he trades the urge to kiss her senseless for a colder, more cunning plan.

Lady Elizabeth Brackendale fears her heart will never be free. Kept under her father's heavy guard and betrothed against her will to a lustful old baron, she tumbles unexpectedly into the arms of the handsome knight who saves her life-and ignites a fire she cannot douse. Then his gallantry vanishes, he steals her from her home, and she is terrified her fate has slipped forever from her hands.

Holding Elizabeth hostage in his keep and setting her up as ransom, Geoffrey finds the scheme chafing against every chivalrous instinct he has left. And though Elizabeth fights her forbidden longing and tries to stop a war between two archenemies, she cannot stop yearning for the man she's certain is no monster-no matter what he claims.
