Publisher's Note
Only a threat to her life could have made strong-willed Lady Alisoun hire Sir David of Radcliffe to protect her castle. Although he had once been a hero and master swordsman, the good life had been a little too good to the lord, and his warrior skills were as rusty as an old suit of armor. But he needed the money to support his motherless daughter, and Alisoun was in no position to haggle. At Alisoun's grand estate, Sir David did indeed discover mischief-makers afoot. But what surprised him most was how quickly his own well-protected heart was in danger of falling to the fiery damsel who brought him to his knees.
Industry Reviews
Lady Alisoun of Green Cross needs a hero and only the legendary mercenary knight, Sir David of Radcliffe, will do. Once considered the king's greatest champion, David is down on his luck when Lady Alisoun hires him as her bodyguard.<BR> Fiercely independent and determined to keep her home and her people safe without marrying again, Lady Alisoun brings David to Green Cross as her savior. Though he sees little danger to Alisoun, David accepts his new position and takes on the task of training the castle's squires and organizing her small band of knights. <BR> David has no idea that Alisoun is hiding a dangerous secret and that he will once again find himself challenged, not only in battle, but by the very passion that grows between the once mighty warrior and the strong-willed lady.<BR> Christina Dodd is a master at combining a deliciously original story with a dash of humor, a dollop of sensuality and a pinch of passion to create a luscious read. This love and laughter medieval romance is pure delight; a truly scrumptious tidbit to brighten your day and lift your spirits.
