BOOK #6

*REISSUE/RENAME* (ORIG 04/15) Originally titled Return Of The Warrior. Start with The Forsaken. Fiercely devoted to her people and her land, Queen Adara will not let a power-mad usurper steal her throne. But the only way to hold what is hers is to seek out the man she was wed to in childhood-and demand he stand at her side. Christian of Acre, a proud and haunted warrior, owes allegiance to nothing but the mysterious Brotherhood, and has no wish to rule over anyone but himself. Then a bold, beautiful stranger appears in his rooms, tempting him with an irresistible seduction and asking the impossible: return with her to their kingdoms, or at the very least give her an heir to her throne. He cannot leave so regal and brave a lady to her enemies. Yet Christian dares not surrender to the desire she stirs-even as the passion between them lays claim to them both.
