  KNIGHT OF PASSION
  
  Nicolette de St. Clair had married solely to bear the son who would fulfill the terms of her inheritance. And so she broke her own heart and that of Alex de Perigueux, the young knight she loved. Now, a decade later, Nicolette is still without a child, and her husband gravely ill.
  
  Alex returns to France a hero, handsome in body, yet scarred deep in his soul. Honor should forbid him accepting Nicolette's husband's request to seduce his wife, sire a child, then disappear forever. It is an indecent but irresistible proposal -- unleashing a wild storm of desire that will sweep Alex and Nicolette either to damnation or toward a love so pure and powerful -- so impossible -- even heaven will weep...
