Ireland, 1459. Alys of Lochlainn craves her father’s attention. Neglected since her mother’s death eleven years ago, the seventeen-year-old heiress is most displeased when an English earl and his son arrive to recruit allies for war. Determined to prevent her only remaining parent from dying on the battlefield, she concocts a desperate scheme to drive the foreign nobles from their land.
​
Attempting to scare them off with poison, Alys unintentionally almost kills the handsome young Englishman. But after an unscrupulous commoner’s blackmail forces her to nurse the dutiful man back to health, she’s alarmed when she finds herself falling for her brave patient.
