About this ebook
Rhiannon, a Welsh farmer’s daughter, is smuggled into a walled English garrison town. Despite her mother’s awareness that Rhiannon is at risk of being discovered and accused of treason, she believes her daughter can pass for an Englishwoman and marry an Englishman.
Rhiannon is harboured by a merchant and his son but her happiness is shattered when her presence in their home is discovered. Taken to the castle, Rhiannon’s fate lies in the hands of Lord Edward. Will Lord Edward believe Rhiannon’s claim that all she wants is to be a lady?
A short, sensual Medieval romance.
"Short but with the atmosphere of Norman times ... delightful," (5-star review).

RHIANNON
If you find yourself in danger, I will come for you,
Alwyn assured Rhiannon. One day you’ll be my wife. Promise you will keep yourself for me. Promise you’ll be chaste until we’re together again.
I will,
Rhiannon said, with a tear in her eye.
Alwyn bent his head and kissed her cheek. And I will keep myself for you,
he told her.
Night had fallen upon that same day by the time Simon, son of John the merchant, reached the gates of the walled town. The guard greeted his familiar face warmly but the young man, he noticed, was on edge this evening. Trouble with your Welsh suppliers?
he asked.
No,
Simon insisted, just some fears I had that there might be rebels on the road.
You can never be too careful,
said the guard, these country folk are capable of anything.
Yes,
Simon agreed.
The guard checked beneath the cover of the cart in a cursory manner and told the boy to carry on, bidding him goodnight.
Simon’s heart was still pounding as he drove his horse under the arch of the gatehouse and into the streets of the town. It didn’t settle until he’d unloaded the goods into the cellar of his father’s house, taken the cart to the back of the building, stabled the horse and returned to the house, locking its front door to the world outside.
