Destiny's Pawn

by Mary Daheim

Morgan's topaz eyes flashed fury, and the flush on her lovely young face was face...not the passion Francis chose to believe he had inspired. But despite Morgan's denial, a flame had been ignited. Swept up in the intrigues of the royal court of Henry VIII, Morgan is denied her own desires when she is forced to marry Francis' brother. But despite the raging conflicts that sweep the land and leave her life in turmoil, Morgan never relinquishes her romantic dreams...or the memory of the forbidden ecstasy that had taken her innocent and awakened the tormented longings of a woman born to love.
