A streak of lightning and a roar of thunder disturb the night and seem to be a prelude to the storm sweeping over England. The boy king, Edward VI is dead and the ambitious lords who stand over him, like preying vultures, are ready to fight over who will be the next to wear the crown. In defense of the legitimate heir - Mary Tudor - Richard Morgan must risk his life to flee from his enemies and ride to warn her.

Heather Bowen, the sheltered daughter of London's richest silk merchant, had known desire only in her dreams until she met the dark, handsome rebel. Now her dawning love for this fugitive defender of Mary Tudor would lead her through the storms of a land divided by war, and into the clutches of enemies who would use any vengeful means - murder, forced marriage to others, threats of execution - to keep the lovers apart.

Swept up in the tumult of the times, fighting the raging flames of hatred which threaten their desire, Heather and Richard vow to sanctify their forbidden love, even if it means going up against "Bloody Mary" herself.

Award winning novel -- Flame of Desire-- is the first book in the saga of the Morgan family. Indigo Sea continues the story as it enfolds during the Golden Age of England under the reign of Elizabeth.
