Wicked

Winning a stubborn lady turns into the battle of his life for a powerful knight in Jill Barnett's latest romance set along the Welsh borderlands. Lady Sofia Howard has sworn never to marry after her young heart was broken by an arrogant young squire. She's spurned every suitor to the dismay of her guardian, King Edward I, who finds that even increasing her dower prize will not lure men to offer for the defiant but lonely Sofia. So, the king takes matters into his own hands and betroths Sofia to Sir Tobin de Clare, the same man who once broke her heart.

Sofia's tattered pride demands that Sir Tobin surrender his heart and the battle of wills that ensues makes war seem tame. But nothing will stop this ruthless warrior from winning his lady. In a classic Barnett battle of will and wit, a knight and his lady find that love at first sight is dangerous at best and never, ever easy.
