Young
Wynne of Gwernachhas no dreams of marriage. |
| Innocent
and pure of heart, she believes that love is an illusion. Instead,
she devotes herself to managing the great family estate nestled in the raw
beauty of Wales, vowing to protect it and her younger brother until he comes
of age to inherit.
And then Madoc of Powys enters into her life, claiming his betrothal to
Wynne when she was a babe. Madoc is both revered and worshipped throughout
the land, for his family’s power is said to stem from Merlin himself.
Yet it is a very human desire he evokes in Wynne... his warm gaze makes
her flesh burn with unaccustomed fire. Still, she remains firm in
her belief that she can never marry, can never be owned. But Madoc of Powys is a Celt in his heart and soul. He knows Wynne’s reluctance to wed is the legacy of another life. In time she will know everything- for which he is both hopeful and desperately afraid. For Wynne and Madoc have been lovers in another time, another place. But what unfinished destiny lays between them? |
