Wild Irish Skies
No other Love Annora Picot leads an enviable life. The only child of Dublin's wealthiest wool merchant, the beauty attracts many suitors, but not a gentleman among the lot can make her forget a brief encounter long ago with a wild Irish rogue. His fiery lust and wicked grin called out to her deepest desire, yet the law forbade them to be lovers, let alone to marry. 'Tis better to remain unwed, she believes, and when the king betroths her to one of his kin, she concocts a bold scheme to save herself from the arranged marriage. Rian O'Byrne, an Irishman condemned to death by the English, is offered a daring chance to escape from Dublin Castle. If he will "kidnap" Mistress Picot, he will be free. But freedom becomes unexpectedly complicated when Rian discovers he's protecting the English woman he'd once seduced and his soul has never forgotten her. As Rian and Annora flee through the hills, they fall into a passionate reunion of desires undiminished by time. Annora's fate lies in the strong, tender hands of a man who swears she belongs to him forever... and no law can quell the hunger that forever entwines their hearts in the magnificent bonds of love.
