Erienne Fleming is the village beauty with suitors coming from all directions. But she only has eyes for Yankee Christopher Seton. But true love eludes Erienne when her irresponsible father auctions her off to pay his gambling debts. She is to marry the masked Lord Saxton, a man who hides his face due to disfiguring scars.
Saxton, while presenting a terrifying image to the public, proves to be a gentle husband. She believes she'll be able to be true to her husband -- until Seton re-enters the scene.
A Rose In Winter is loosely based on the "Beauty and the Beast" fairy tale. This was Kathleen Woodiwiss's fourth book.
