HER GOLDEN RADIANCE INFLAMED HIS HEART Lady Elspeth was the most beautiful woman Thomas had ever seen. Tormented by desire, he despaired of ever possessing her, for she was a noblewoman, as well as being the sister of his sworn enemy, Sir Stephen Ufford, and Thomas was only a clerk -- or so he claimed.
Then there was Lady Margery, Sir Stephen's wife, a dark-haired hoyden whose youth and spirited charm had caught the eye of Edward III, the proud Plantagenet ruler whom Thomas served.
Try as he might, Thomas found it impossible to avoid the Ufford women, though he owed Sir Stephen a debt that could only be paid in blood.
Bold swordsman, brave adventurer, gallant lover, Thomas moved from battlefield to boudoir in his struggle to carry out his secret mission and to win the woman he loved.
