Excerpt
Fearful,
she cringed as her gaze climbed higher, over his chest, over his chin, finally
resting on the dark blue eyes turned toward her.
Geoffrey
returned her appraisal, his gaze sweeping her figure as a smile crept over his
face. “Your Majesty.” He spoke to the king but his attention remained fixed on
Alyse. “When my father told me of the betrothal contract before I left his
home, I resolved to play the dutiful son. Now, however, I find I do not wish to
act that role after all.” His eyes held hers as he paused.
Dear God,
does he mean to renounce me here before
the entire court?
Alyse
stared at the man beside her, willing herself to remain upright, despite the
waves of ice and fire alternating through her body.
“Now
I find I would rather play the ardent lover.”

The
heart can choose, but can it also change?
Lady
Alyse de Courcy has fallen in love with Lord Braeton, a nobleman in King Edward
III’s court and a man to whom she has barely spoken. Fate, however, has decreed
her betrothal to his best friend, Sir Geoffrey Longford—a handsome and imposing
knight, yet hardly the man she wants to wed.
When
Sir Geoffrey is bound in betrothal by his father, he could not have expected
the beautiful stranger to win his heart the moment they meet. But Alyse’s
infatuation with his friend casts doubt on whether she can ever return his
regard and their wedding day is fast approaching… Will he have time enough to win her love?
