CURSEDEngland of The Norman Conquest, 1068: Two years have passed since the Battle of Hastings changed the course of a nation. As the defeated Saxons continue to chafe against the yoke of Norman rule, Rhiannyn of Etcheverry finds herself at the center of a rebellion when the conqueror she refuses to wed dies in her arms--cursing her never to know the love of a man or the blessing of children. Certain only her silence can save her people from retaliation, she holds close the dark truth about his death. But when his avenging brother saves her life, she discovers another side to the celebrated warrior of Hastings--one that will test her loyalties and beliefs. And expose the innocent heart beneath her Saxon pride.UNFORGIVENRenouncing his holy vows, Maxen Pendery pledges to discover who murdered his brother--even at the cost of the soul he has wrestled to save since thrusting his sword in the blood-soaked soil of Hastings and walking away. But when he has Rhiannyn of Etcheverry at his mercy, she continues to protect the rebel leader to whom she was once betrothed. Though breathtakingly lovely, not once does she use her wiles to battle Maxen, only her sharp tongue, strong will, and a selflessness that makes something unexpected stir his ignoble heart, leaving him torn between duty and longing. Will this cursed beauty be the death of him? Or might she be his redemption?… (more)
