Synopsis

When Perdita was rescued from the forest by the Earl of Athelstan, she was at first afraid of the dark secrets of the castle, but then she discovered that her lover was a man who stood head and shoulders above others of his time, and she was proud to love him. Even though it meant she must risk the threat of excommunication--or even her own life--to follow her heart.
