When
Mary de Veres closest companion Martin de Staffordwhom she secretly lovesis stolen
from her by his long-promised marriage to another woman, eighteen-year-old Mary
believes things can get no worse until an assassins blade takes her fathers
life. The laws of the land place her under the authority of her heartless
uncle, but even as her world falls apart around her, Mary vows to one day
reclaim her rights and her title.
Years
later, Martin, now the Sheriff of Staffordshire and a widower since illness
claimed his wife, encounters his childhood friend in the unlikeliest of places:
a convent. Though Mary plays the part of a simple woman who dreams of becoming
a nun, Martin is far from convinced. He knows the feisty girl far too well to
believe that she aspires to a life of service in the church, and in any case, he
has another future to offer hera future as his wife.
When
she spurns his affections, Martin only grows more determined to unravel her
plot, and at last Mary is caught red-handed in an act of banditry. To save
herself from the dungeon, she is left with no choice but to submit to the very
thing she once longed for: marriage to Martin de Stafford. Mary soon learns
that her new husband is more than her match and that from now on her bare bottom
will pay the price for her scheming. In spite of her pride, Martins firm
chastisement enflames her lust for him, but can she truly force herself to put
aside the wrongs of the past and lay claim to a life at the side of the man she
always wanted?
