A legendary warrior. A mission to tame the rebellion of the Welsh Borderlands. A wild Welsh beauty.

Teleri of the Woods was shunned by superstitious villagers, so for years she has lived her solitary life in a hidden cottage deep in the forest. But when she discovers a man in the wood, hanged and left for dead, she must try to save him with her tender healing skills. She does not know he is a knight charged by the King of England to establish a stronghold and build a castle.

Sir Roger FitzAlan awakes without the ability to speak and to discover that none of his fabled diplomacy and skills of war will help him with his most immediate problem—a wild woman who has tied him to stakes in a small woodland cottage and is forcing vile brew down his throat. Teleri is his match in wit and will, but she opens his eyes to the wonder of a simple world he has never known.

As Roger slowly heals, he fomulates his plan for catching his would-be-murderer, and he realizes something else: his real challenge won't be taming the borderlands but winning over his wild Welsh healer. He understands that he cannot live in her world and she may not survive in his. He teach her to trust him, even though he is the one person who threatens all she holds dear.

War weary knight, Merrick de Beaucourt, wants nothing more than a simple life, a peaceful wife, and to oversee his new earldom. What he gets instead are orders from his king, Camrose Castle on the wild and rebellious Welsh borders, and a completely unbiddable wife.

For six long years, Lady Clio has waited for her betrothed...waited, and waited. Once the news arrives that he is returning, Clio returns to Camrose to again await the man who ignored her, but now determined to make him pay for the years she languished in a convent. Clio leads Merrick a merry chase, and she takes on the role of an independent alewife, driven to discover the lost recipe for ancient "heather ale," a magical beer first made by the Picts.

Surrounded by the enchanted mists that circle Camrose Castle, these head-strong adversaries embark on a sometimes passionate, sometimes hilarious battle of wills in this unusual 13th Century tale of a brave knight who seeks to claim—and tame—his bride, or so he thinks...
