Beloved One

In her sensational and breathtaking romantic novel, The Wild One, author Danelle Harmon introduced readers to the first of the four unforgettable de Montforte brothers. Now the saga continues with the story of brave and handsome Lord Charles Adair de Montforte, revered throughout his family's lands as "the Beloved One". A loyal captain in His Majesty's Army, he has been sent to serve in the rebellious American colonies. But, after being wounded in battle, he awakens to find himself in the tender care of Amy Leighton, a sweet and sensuous local lass who is trapped in a life of drudgery in the household of her cruel and unloving step-family. Charles's heart is moved by her desperate plight -- and his passion is enflamed by her curvaceous dark loveliness. Amy has long prayed that someday someone like this strong yet gentle stranger would enter her lonely world. But Charles is duty bound to his King -- and he is promised to another -- so it seems a budding love will never fully blossom...until fate takes a hand.
