A brave and beautiful peasant girl is the ultimate challenge for a Norman conqueror determined to claim her heart in this medieval romance.

The tempestuous peasant daughter of a slain Saxon lord, Alana of Brynwald resists the brutal Norman invaders—but fears the mysterious specter who haunts her dreams. And now he stands before her—tall and strong as an oak ... terrifying yet strangely exciting. The dark knight of her visions has come to claim her as his prize.

By rights, Merrick of Normandy should shun the serpent-tongued beauty who wishes him dead. But Alana's sensuous fire draws him to her — and burns him to his warrior soul. It is he who is lord and she the captive. Yet Merrick can never claim true victory until the proud Saxon maid shares his passion — and embraces him as master of her heart.
