The Lady Anne
All This For Love...

She was tall and lovely, a brilliant horsewoman, scholar, and businesswoman born of noble blood traceable to the English throne. Even so, her loving father and aunt had to offer a large dowry to secure to the spirited young girl a husband. For though the daughter of a great lord, the proud Lady Anne was illegitimate, a bastard shunned by the cream of society.

Still, it was with passion that she accepted the hand of her newly purchased suitor, the handsome, charming, and gambling rogue, Gilbert Brownwell. Together they sailed to the New World to start a new life. But an even longer and more treacherous journey lay ahead for the young bride, a violent one that would tear her away from her marriage and demand every ounce of her courage and sharp wit -- if she were ever to win the life she deserved, and the man she loved.
