The Heretic’s Daughter

A medieval heiress is caught in a game of political intrigue when both the king and an ambitious bishop desire her estate.

LADY ARABELLA OF BEVERSTONE reads forbidden medical books, determined to save her pregnant mother’s baby. Her mismatched eyes and ability to mix medicinal tinctures cause suspicion among the townspeople she may be a witch.

When her father is sentenced to be burned at the stake for making illegal copies of the Bible, the king demands she marry a dangerous mercenary knight to secure her land.

GARETH WYNTER, a respected war hero, loyally follows his king’s command to marry an heiress, despite his apprehension. His past has proven aristocratic ladies are sneaky, unfaithful liars. Before the wedding is finished, Arabella escapes. Using his dogs, Gareth finds her and imprisons her in his cottage.
