Defy the Wind
Prisoner of Rapture -- Hostage to Edward, King of England, Meghan ab Owen is the splendid Welsh beauty who scorns the powerful protection of Sir Hugh Fitz Alan, the king's mighty right hand. Yet beneath her defiance rages a fierce desire. Relentlessly, the war-scarred Norman lord seeks to tame the chieftain's daughter. But Meghan, sister and daughter of warriors, has vowed never to be a soldier's bride. Until the tide of battle delivers her to Hugh's bed... Magnificently matched in passion, they are sundered by loyalty: Hugh to the royal cause, Meghan to her defeated clansmen. Though bitterness and violence rise like a sword between them, their hearts are joined at last, in love's proud and triumphant surrender.
