In 1351, Lady Elizabeth D'Auvers returns from exile to her ancestral English castle and finds it managed by a knight errant whose courage and looks attract her but whose secrets make her tremble. Original."

Lady Elizabeth D'Auvers returns to her beloved home, Woodell Castle, after a self-imposed exile to save herself and her stepchildren from the plague sweeping Britain. Afraid that she will find death and ruin, she is relieved to discover that her castlefolk and lands have thrived in her absence due to the presence of Lord Thomas of Roxburgh. Lord Thomas's great physical size is equaled only by the size of his heart, and his kindness and care for her people earn him the Lady's gratitude. But Elizabeth soon feels much more for Thomas than gratefulness, for desire and passion draw her to the dark, mysterious knight. Thomas, too, is powerfully attracted to the beautiful Lady, but the secrets he keeps may destroy their chance at happiness and bring about his own death. A fast-paced plot and well-drawn characters make Heart of a Knight an enjoyable read. --Lois Faye Dyer
