DESIRED BY EVERY MAN IN ENGLAND…

Raised on the streets of London, Fiona Byrne is sold into a life of sin, purchased by a powerful nobleman who is as depraved as he is handsome. Under his wicked tutelage, she becomes England’s most desired courtesan: Giselle de Coeur, “The Crimson Lady” – an extraordinary beauty whose sensual skill is legendary, but whose shame is too painful to bear. After years under the nobleman’s control, Fiona escapes, taking the disguise of a simple seamstress in an effort to live in peace. But then she is discovered by Braedan de Cantor, a desperate mercenary knight. He threatens to expose her secret unless she will aid him in finding his sister, who has been debased at the hands of the same corrupt master.

LOVED BY ONE MAN ABOVE ALL…

Braedan has suffered disgrace of his own, stripped of his good reputation and cast into the world of outlaws for seeking vengeance against his sister’s defiler.

And as they prepare to defy the powerful forces aligned against them, he vows that he will do anything – enter any battle and conquer any foe – in order to keep her safe. For this exquisite, courageous woman who holds his heart and soul embodies the one real truth he has been seeking all his life, offering him a magnificent destiny they can share together, finally free from the seductive façade of...

    Bored

    The book started out good with an original story...then about half way through, it got boring and predictable. Almost painful to finish!
