Thrill of the Knight - Paperback

by Gayle Callen (Author)

She hid as a servant to save her people-and stole a knight's heart.

Newly orphaned, Lady Elizabeth Hutton refuses to bend to the ambitions of the neighboring lord who covets her lands-even when his soldiers lock her in her own bedchamber. So she takes a desperate gamble: she and her maid trade places, giving Elizabeth the freedom to save her people while hiding in plain sight.

Sir John Russell has come to rescue the noblewoman he hasn't laid eyes on since boyhood-the woman he is sworn to marry. Yet it isn't his betrothed who stirs him. It's her bewitching servant, whose pull threatens the oath he lives by and forces him toward an impossible choice: duty and honor, or ecstasy and disgrace.
