A Light Within (Heartsong Presents #280)

the long version

As the Norman invaders sweep across the English countryside in the year A. D. 1067, one dark Norman takes possession of the Castle Fenlac and all its inhabitants. One of those among the conquered fears the the handsome invader who has entered her life, but Brianna's fears come more from the attraction she feels for Garek than concern over his dominion. She finds herself interceding for his life, and soon Garek must return the favor, binding them closer than either can comprehend. Surrounded by darkness, Garek himself is drawn to the strange English woman who seems to hold within her the Light he has been searching for. Sworn to serve his king, can Garek free himself of his past and find a love greater than he has ever known?
