Lord of Desire (Warner Forever)
Lord Brand "the Passionate" Risande defeated Lady Brynnafar Dumont's father in battle and has now come to claim the Dumont castle. Brynna vows to do whatever it takes to protect her family's Saxon retainers, even if it means marrying the conquering Norman brute. When Brynna finally meets Brand, she is shocked to discover that he is the man she briefly encountered a year before who has since haunted her every romantic fantasy. Suddenly, the idea of wedding the sinfully sexy nobleman becomes much more appealing, but Brand, who caught his former betrothed in the throes of passion with another man, has no interest in marriage. Brynna knows that earning Brand's trust and love will not be easy, but she is determined that this is one battle she will definitely win. Quinn deftly enhances her debut with just enough historical details to give a vivid sense of time and place to this gloriously passionate, boldly sensual medieval romance.John CharlesCopyright © American Library Association.
