She would save the lives and fortunes of her village...In the conquering arms of her enemy... Swept from her home as hostage, beautiful chestnut-haired Christin Winchelsea was the spirited charge of the handsome rebel leader Patrick Mowbray. She was an honorable Saxon-and would die before she surrendered to this heathen Scot, known and hated throughout England for his ruthless treachery to the British Crown. Born a conqueror, the Scotsman with the arrogant brown eyes had met his match in the beautiful Lady Winchelsea. Never was there a woman who inspired in him such fierce desires...such gentle love. Now deep in the desolate Scottish Highlands, thrust into the violence of battle, Christin and the rebel Mowbray are locked in their own war-torn between treachery and longing...treason and desire...love and death!
