HEARTS AFLAME - Avon

Kristen Haardrad met the fury in the crystal-green eyes of Royce of Wyndhurst with defiance. She was his prisoner, but his slave she'd never be. Yet Kristen could not know the torment that divided his soul; how he ached to hold her soft, supple body - yet hated her for an ancient crime that was not her own. But the powerful Saxon lord had met his match in the golden Viking beauty - his equal in pride, in strength... Until, in wordless surrender, they cast aside the shackles of doubt and distrust to unite forever in the searing promise of all-consuming love.
