Book Description

WANTED...for crimes against the king. In retaliation for the brutality of the English troops, the Irish rebel Egan is fighting back, leading a secret group of revolutionaries--and building his legend across the country.

REJECTED...by her own family. Jane Purefoy is a woman with a past. The daughter of an English magistrate, she watched her Irish lover die on the gallows. Now Jane's reputation is ruined-and she has all but ceased to exist in the eyes of her family.

DESIRED...with a forbidden passion. Sir Nicholas Spencer is on his way to Woodfield House to court the youngest Purefoy sister when he runs afoul of Egan. Not a man to be cowed, Nicholas wrestles the rebel to the ground and unmasks him-only to uncover Jane's lovely countenance. Bewitched by the spirited lass, Nicholas decides to keep her secret while embarking on a risky plan of seduction--one that will throw her family into chaos, the county into rebellion, and his heart into the throes of a love that can never be....
