During the turbulent, decadent reign of William II, a royal mercenary finds himself caught in the throes of an unexpected passion—and played as a pawn in a treacherous game…
The bastard son of a Norman nobleman, Robert Beaumont has blossomed into one of England’s fiercest killers—and has found himself well paid for his talents. But now the time has come for him to set aside his sword. The king has agreed to reward him for his last service with an estate…on one condition: Robert must marry the sitting tenant—the infamous Lady Deformed.
For years, Imogen Colebrook has lived in the ramshackle Saxon keep, the virtual prisoner of her cruel, sadistic brother, the man responsible for her deformity—and for wedding her to a dangerous man. Yet, on Robert’s arrival, Imogen nearly brings the hardened warrior to his knees. For she is a vision of unparalleled beauty—living in a world without sight. Drawn to her courageous spirit, Robert gently draws Imogen out of her tortured past. But with her brother always lurking in the shadows, Imogen’s newfound sanctuary in Robert’s arms is in danger of being destroyed—unless her salvaged heart can find a way out of the darkness…
Anyone know if Sarah Brophy has a site? I couldn’t find one…
Ooooohhh sounds good! When does it come out? I love what this publisher – Zebra isn’t it? – is doing by publishing new authors at a reduced price. It’s a great idea for new writers to get a chance to sell their books and get a bit of a name.
Wow! That does sound good. I have no idea if she has a site or not…but let me know if you find out more!
Jan 2007 kristie not sure when in jan though.
will do holly 😉
This does sound good!
Isn’t this the cover model you hate? It does sound good…
er, not sure if I should jump here, but I’m Sarah Brophy. a friend told me she googled my name and found this discussion.
Wouldn’t do that myself of course, That would be vain :-D.
And, No I don’t have a site yet and , but it is under construction should be up in a couple of weeks.
And you don’t like the model??? I thought he looked just the right amount of grumpy!
Sarah, I think it’s because we see him EVERYWHERE, so we’ve all gotten a bit sick of seeing him on covers.
Gasp! you mean he’s a cover slut?????
I’m so disappointed in him.
Total cover slut. *grin* But hey, your books looks interesting!
This looks good and I don’t normally go for medievals. And yeah, this guy’s on a lot of covers lately.
Cover slut he may be – but he’s a mighty fine looking cover slut – much better than say ah someone whose name starts with F. He can grace the cover of any of my books. In fact …I think he does!
And call me slow but I just noticed that we have to pay $2 more here. That’s just wrong!
I LOVE that particular cover slut. He makes me imagine rubbing myself all over him – never a bad thing in my mind.
I really enjoyed this book (would have used “loved” again, but hate to be redundant). Nice character development, good story. I’m a sucker for HEA’s like this one. Thanks Sarah!
