A Memory of Love - Bertrice Small

A tale of stunning passion, reckless danger, and the fierce will of a remarkable
woman who can wield a sword as powerfully as any man-and who dares to fight for her
most uninhibited desires. . . .

Spirited, iron-willed Rhonwyn is the bastard child
of the Prince of Wales, raised more boy than girl, able to ride and fight with the
best. Against her wishes, she is married off to an English lord, Edward de Beaumont,
who is stunned to discover that his lovely gilt-haired bride is a fiery wildcat with
a mind of her own. Slowly, he wins her trust and her heart, and she accompanies him
on the Crusades to North Africa. But when Edward falls ill, Rhonwyn boldly leads
his troops, only to become a captive of the sensual Emir of Cinnebar, a man who will
teach her the ways of erotic love-passions that will be put to the test when she
returns to England to battle once more . . . this time for the man who rules her
heart.
