About This Book

Jamie Montgomery, an impoverished Elizabethan knight, is elated when he is assigned to escort Axia, the Lancaster heiress, to the castle of her betrothed. If only she will fall in love with Jamie — as Jamie’s devoted older sister predicts — the family’s financial woes will be solved. But Axia, who has spent her life closely guarded by her father’s servants, is not the shy, cossetted flower Jamie expects.
