England 1068
When Sir Lucien de Morville, a loyal knight of the Norman crown, is granted the Saxon stronghold of Aethelmere, duty demands he claim not only the land but also its lady. Proud, willful Aelfwyn, daughter of the dispossessed lord, is beautiful beyond compare, but she is also willful and rebellious. He knew it the moment he set eyes on her.
Feisty Aelfwyn vows never to give her heart to the man who represents her people’s defeat. Yet when she meets Lucien, she is surprised to find him not only one of the most handsome men she has ever met but also gallant, and beneath his command there lies a gentleness she didn’t expect.
Despite the king’s wishes, Lucien tells her that he will give her a week to decide on marriage. If she decides against it, then she will have to leave Aethelmere. If not, then she will submit to him in every way.
Aelfwyn’s defiant nature soon gets her into trouble with the handsome lord, and she finds herself over his knee receiving sound discipline.
Rather than making her heart rebel, she finds it stirs a spark of desire, and soon love begins to bloom in the shadow of conquest.
But the ghosts of rebellion gather once more against Aethelmere and its new lord. When danger threatens all they hold dear, Lucien and Aelfwyn must stand united, no longer as conqueror and captive, but as two hearts bound by courage, trust, and a love fierce enough to defy fate.
Disclaimer:If you love romantic spanking discipline, alpha heroes, and feisty heroines, jump straight in, but if this offends you, please don't purchase it!
