Typical Lindsey historical. Overblown emotional yarn with great characters. Quick read.
No existía en el mundo un hombre capaz de domar a Alexandra Rubliov, una fogosa y bonita librepensadora que, con su resuelta negativa a casarse, había logrado frustrar a su desventurado padre. Por tal motivo, éste produce un acuerdo olvidado hace tiempo... y despide a Alexandra afirmando falsamente que desde la infancia estaba prometida al apuesto e insufrible libertino a quien ahora ella debe acompañar a su tierra natal para contraer matrimonio.
