This is book #1 of 2 that Joyce wrote. Not my choice of time period but ended up reading book #2 [The Conqueror] because I ehjoyed the first one. The story has politics,murder and betrayal on top of a romance. It was interesting to read.

Brave and battle-hardened Stephen de Warenne is to defend to the death that which is his by right of conquest -- including the golden-haired captive who awakens his soul's most secret yearnings. For theirs is a passion that will not be denied -- a magnificent fire that burns hotter and brighter than the blazing flames of war that engulf the land.
