From New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson comes a powerful medieval romance in which a secret betrayal ignites unbridled passion between a lord and his lady... Kiera of Lawenydd couldn’t believe what she’d done. Owing her sister a favor, Kiera promised to pose as Elyn on her wedding day. The ruse was to last just one night, but the following morning Elyn was nowhere to be found! Surely Kiera wouldn’t have to spend the rest of her wedded life to the baron picked out for her sister, a man to whom she could never admit the depths of her deception—even as her desire for him grew impossible to resist.
It was obvious to Lord Kelan of Penbrooke that something was amiss with his new bride. But despite his misgivings, he couldn’t deny that he was falling in love with the dark-haired beauty. Until he uncovered exactly what she was up to, Kelan would keep the mysterious woman by his side—all the while keeping the fierce stirrings of his heart a well-guarded secret...

Reviews-
March 15, 2003 To repay the debt she owes her sister, Kiera of Lawenydd reluctantly agrees to pretend to be Elyn during her wedding day so that her sister can have one last night with the lover she must give up to marry Lord Kelan, the "Beast of Penbrooke." Since Kelan has never seen Elyn, Kiera hopes their scheme will succeed, but everything depends on her keeping Kelan drunk enough to not want a wedding night with his new bride. Unfortunately, after the wedding Kiera finds there isn't enough wine in all of Wales to keep Kelan from sampling his new wife, but even more surprising to her is just how much she enjoys Kelan's sensual skills. When Elyn doesn't show up the next day as promised, Kiera is trapped in a lie and left desperately trying to deceive her dangerous, all too attractive new husband. Jackson's strong, vivid characters and bold writing style will please readers who want their medieval romances to be adventurous and sensually passionate.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2003, American Library Association.)
