The Barnes & Noble Review
Bestselling romance author Bertrtice Small begins a sexy historical series, the Border Chronicles, with this story of love, loss, and triumph over hard times.
Set in the borderlands between England and Scotland, A Dangerous Love tells the story of Adair Radcliffe, illegitimate daughter of King Edward by the countess of Stanton. Adair, a spirited beauty, is faced with loss at an early age when both her parents are murdered by Lancastrians. Later, she is betrothed to a young husband she refuses to acknowledge or bed; after his death, she achieves some measure of happiness with her second husband. Betrayed by her half sister, Adair finds herself a widow again with her family estate in ruins and is sold by kidnappers at the Michaelmas fair. The lucky bidder? Scottish laird Conal Bruce, who first sees her as a promising wench and housekeeper, then falls hard. He wants to marry her, but this time she's holding out for love. Small delivers a wonderful romance, replete with historical detail and those slow seductions her fans relish. Ginger Curwen
A Dangerous Love
Adair Radcliffe is only a child when her family perishes in the War of the Roses, so her real father, the womanizing King Edward IV, takes her in, honoring his promise to her mother. Once Adair turns sixteen, the king marries her off without her knowledge-and to her later outrage-in a wedding by proxy. But when tragedy leaves her a widow twice over, Adair realizes that her already tenuous social position has sunk even lower. Now, all she can do is hope that the Scottish laird to whom she is sold will have mercy on her. But little does master or servant suspect that love knows no rank.
