Book Description

Blurb 1

Terrorizing the lonely roads around Canterbury is the Black Knight, a smoothly-spoken highwayman who offers his lady victims a rose after removing their precious jewels. It is into this dangerous area that Juliet Ware and her aunt come to spend the summer at Whitehurst Priory, home of the local squire, Sir Nicholas Childe. Fascinating and eligible as the young squire is, Juliet finds herself more attracted to the mysterious Mr. Stephen Thorne. Just what is he doing in the village, and why does he always wear sombre, dark clothes in high summer? Juliet believes she has identified the ruthless highwayman, until she finds a locked room in the ruined gatehouse, and the mystery deepens.

Blurb 2

Her indifferent heart had never been touched! Every man Juliet had met had tried. Now... it was different. She was irritated by the strange reserve of both the mysterious Stephen Thorne and the handsome Sir Nicholas Childe. For the first time in her life Juliet set out to arouse a man's desire. But she met only rebuff and she was sure both men had something to hide. Was one of them the dark highwayman who was terrorizing the lonely roads? If so, did she dare get involved? She began to fear the wild promptings of her heart.
