My Loving Enemy
Verge, Lisa Ann
HONOR PRIDE, AND HERITAGE ... SHE WOULD RISK ALL FOR HIS LOVE
Headstrong heiress Alienor de Tournan cheered when her father captured the renegade knight who had stolen her dower lands and ruined her chances for marriage. Yet when she saw the gravely wounded Jehan de St. Simon, unyielding even as he was cast into her father's dungeon to die, she was so moved with pity that she secretly came to his dark cell to tend him ... and to tremble at the fire in his touch.
Jehan de St. Simon, dashing French brigand and knight-at-arms, had fallen captive when the Vicomte de Tournan violated the rules of chivalry. Now he vowed a holy oath of revenge against this ruthless enemy. But on the day his sword again clashed against the house of Tournan, he would take more than the Vicomte's castle. He wanted the beautiful blond Alienor to cherish ... and to repay her kindness by showing her ecstasy's incomparable joys.
Driven by passion, Alienor was caught between her loyalties and an overwhelming desire for Jehan. Her duty and her pride told her to enter a convent or to fight his embrace. But her aching heart whispered ... go to him and defy the world for his love.
