“Let yourself be swept away by the utterly enchanting atmosphere of a best-loved fairytale, and you’ll find yourself caught in Ms. Verge’s marvelous, magical tale. As always the author delivers a book that is uniquely wonderful.” --RT Book Reviews
“An exciting, fast-paced medieval romance. Lisa Ann Verge is on the verge of climbing to the top of this genre, a position she definitely deserves.” --Affaire de Coeur
Rhys is a man accursed, forced to hide his scarred face behind a leather mask. When he hears rumors of a woman with mystical healing powers, he crosses a sea to kidnap her. But this Irish lass is no frightened girl, and she will move the Welsh lord as no blue-blooded beauty ever has.
Possessed with the gift of ancient magic, Aileen knows her captor is a man more afflicted in spirit than in flesh. She despises him for stealing her from home, but she can’t deny her duty to heal him—no more than she can deny the passion between them. Time may heal this man, wounded by bloodshed and treachery, but Aileen knows it will take a miracle to change his unbelieving heart.
