description: AN AGE OF LOVE AND WAR
  
  It was a time of conquest and cruelty, of the clash of iron chains and armor, of French blood on English soil. Here Gerlaine de Neuville comes with her family to claim their fiefdom and build their own noble line.
  
  But Saxons, they discover, do not take so easily to the yoke. And one of them, half a lord by birth -- learned, tall, and fearless -- cannot be cowed. He is Gurth Bastard, the man Gerlaine cannot own and cannot help but love.
  
  Love, war... twins in this dark age. And when the bloodstained hand of a Saxon strikes those dear to her, Gerlaine will hate the man she loves with all her heart...
