The Garnetsword

She was a widowed warrior, reluctant heir to a divided throne, thrust into a rescue mission that brought her deep into the heart of enemy territory. But Aurora Carreon, Lady Grayslake, seeks not to avenge her husband's death at the hands of their enemies, but to spread a message of love and forgiveness in the foreign lands adjacent to her home. Rebel, soldier, fighter, lover: Jedren tribal resistance fighter, Ardan of the Wolf Clan, serves his tribe well, fighting for survival in a hostile land between two hostile rulers. A cold, calculating strategist, he is also a man of intense emotions: passion, anger, love, and hate. When he captures Lady Grayslake, the beautiful, fierce warrior elicits a desire he thought long dead and gone. Two sworn enemies. Desire born out of hatred and distrust. When Aurora is captured and taken deep into enemy territory by the man who murdered her husband, will she fulfill her mission of love and peace, or will she give in to the dark desires elicited by the touch of her greatest enemy, who took from her the one man she loved most of all?
