The Barnes & Noble ReviewIf you're looking for the perfect gift for any Johanna Lindsey fan, look no further than Prisoner of My Desire, a sexy romance set in 12th-century England. This classic Johanna Lindsey tale, first published in paperback more than a decade ago, is now available in an elegant hardcover edition. As a weak king clings to the throne, the realm suffers. Law and justice are ignored, and offer little refuge to a lady in distress. Beautiful young heiress Rowena Belleme can find no escape when her brutal stepbrother, Gilbert, forces her into marriage with the lecherous old Lord of Kirkborough. Not even the death of her unwanted husband before the marriage can be consummated can untangle her from Gilbert's web of foul plots. For her stepbrother to command the old lord's troops in his dispute with the warlord known as the Dragon of the North, no one can learn that the Lord of Kirkborough died without begetting an heir. So Lord Gilbert has a stranger kidnapped -- a man whose appearance assures that his child could pass for a legitimate heir -- and forces Rowena to mate with the captive. But that man turns out to be Warrick de Chaville, a powerful knight who is prepared to fight against this unholy theft. And, when Warrick gains his freedom, he unleashes his own plans for vengeance, with all the power of the Dragon of the North at his command. On this unfamiliar battlefield, Warrick and Rowena battle fiercely, with such passion that what began as bitter hatred is soon transformed to glorious love. Sue Stone
