After the invasion of William the Conquerer, Aslyn is devastated with the loss of her father and the destruction of her land. Hatred brewing in her person, Aslyn sets out to make William pay. Avoiding the kingas capture for two years, Aslyn is finally ready to let her hatred rest and settle down. A countess in her own right, Aslyn is dismayed when after her last mission the king sends his commander of the army to seek out the person responsible for Williamas headaches. Caden of Stein, the kingas champion, is called upon to root out the rebel who has evaded the king. Finding himself led to Fallsworth Castle, Caden is stumped when meeting the fiery vixen who parades around in menas clothing and wields a sword better than most men. Caden questions himself again and again on why his rampant lust lurks around every time the woman is near.
