More about the book

"Brittany, 1189: Nothing is more important to Attica d’Alérion than honor and her duty to her family. For the sake of her house she has agreed to a dynastic marriage with the sulky 13-year-old heir to a powerful nobleman, and when she learns of a treacherous plot against the King that could threaten the life of her beloved brother, Stephen, she risks everything in a desperate ride to warn him.The dangers of the road force Attica to join forces with Damion de Jarnac, a black knight with the burning ambitions of a disgraced younger son—and a deadly secret of his own. Surrounded by shifting alliances and betrayals, the two are increasingly forced to rely on only each other. And as the world around them crumbles into war, they find it more and more difficult to resist the hopeless passion that flares between them. But they cannot escape the day when conflicting loyalties and the tragedies of their time will force each to make an impossible choice between love and honor"--Back cover
