A beautiful but mysterious woman arrives in the castle courtyard one night, as the baron’s replacement to Lord Ricard Wellington’s betrothed. With eyes like emeralds and a smile that could melt even a hardened warrior’s heart, Lady Flora Debenham quickly captures Ricard’s interest. However, she is feisty as well as disobedient and keeps sneaking out of the castle walls. The woods are dangerous and filled with Druids who he believes have killed his parents. Fearing for her safety, he follows her, hoping to learn her secrets.
Lady Flora takes her cousin’s place as the handsome Lord Ricard’s betrothed, but it is naught more than a ploy to get close to the Druids who are hiding nearby. Her dying mother reveals to her that her father was a Druid and that she was conceived at the festival of Beltane. The woman’s last wish was for Flora to find her father and return a sacred icon to him.
What starts out as nothing but a means to an end turns into an attraction to a man Flora never intended to marry. Ricard treats her like a queen, and she starts to fall in love. The only wedge between them is that he has vowed to hunt down and kill the same people she is trying to protect.
Will vengeance prevent the seeds of love from blooming?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sir Ricard Wellington inherited his castle when his parents were killed by the Druids that live in the nearby forest. He has sworn to kill every Druid or Pagan but finding them is proving very difficult. To add to his problems his betrothed is not who he expected.
Lady Flora Debenham has her own reasons for swapping places with her cousin. None of them are anything to do with the man who she has promised to marry.
Our hero has absolutely no control over his castle. As for his two brothers, I don't think they could make one brain between them. I would have to knock their heads together.
Our heroine is sneaky but also too innocent to realize what is going on.
There are lots of giggles in this story, mainly because of the idiot brothers.
It is part of a series but easily read alone. A good lighthearted read.
