description: In a time of treacherous rulers and intrepid outlaws...She lives among the outlaws of Sherwood forest, a beauty as ethereal and fathomless as the Wildwood itself.

Its lush forests are inhabited by bandits—and the ravishing Giselle, who lures him into her lawless world, where desire is their only common ground, and where danger haunts their every embrace.In a novel set against the timeless world of Robyn Hood and Maid Marian, the celebrated author of The Court of Love and The Conquered Heart brings us another extraordinary historical romance of 13th-century England, as a man and a woman fight for a love born in the mists of legend...
