SummaryThe English island called Abandon, enshrouded in ancient
legend, has been home to warriors as well as enchanting
womenand none more spellbinding than lovely Morwenna
Halliwell. Determined to fight when Abandon is offered to
the highest bidder, Morwenna confronts the enemy: the Earl
of Pentargon, Anthony Hartstoneor "Lord
Heart-of-Stone" as she indignantly calls him. Yet little
does Morwenna realize she will soon be forced to marry the
forbidding lord who holds her future in his strong hands.
Anthony arrogantly dismisses Morwenna and her litany of
complaints against himall the while drawn to her
beauty and courage. But when danger confronts Morwenna,
Anthony knows he must call upon all his power to protect the
innocent miss he desires. It is up to him to unmask the
villain who threatens her, and also to convince his bride
that he is not her opponentbut her most passionate and
devoted admirer.
