Description

She can't escape a loveless marriage... Lady Elena is treated like a chattel after her late father's acts of treason. Her guardian wants her to wed his son, but only so they can seize her ancestral lands and ensure the survival of the de Waltham dynasty. There's no affection in the forthcoming match, as Elena discovers when she learns the true meaning of love in the arms of Richard of St. Aubyn. He can't risk his honour, or that of his family... Known mockingly as 'The Unluckiest Knight in Christendom', Richard fights valiantly in battle and on the practice field. Yet, he never carries away the prize. Proof of the curse that hangs over him is his increasing attachment to the unattainable Elena. He may not be able to make her his own, but when her life is threatened, he's prepared to sacrifice himself to save her. It's the only way to prove his love, but if his sacrifice isn't enough, these two star-crossed lovers stand to lose everything. Unless they can find a way of lifting the curse... #historicalromance #medievalromance #historicalfiction
