nA super-star knight with a de Wolfe pedigree... and the Scottish rose who saves his life. nIn the turbulent lands of the English/Scottish border, their love wasnt meant to last. n... but no one loves as strongly as a de Wolfe. nWarwick War Herringthorpe was born of a Northumberland de Percy daughter and the Wolfe of the Border, William de Wolfe, back in the days when William was a rising hero, unencumbered by marriage, free to do, and love, whom he so chooses. A brief relationship with Jane de Percy left Jane pregnant and William unaware of the situation. Janes father had bigger aspirations for his daughter than a mere knight and quickly married her to a much-older, titled husband who was willing to overlook her indiscretion. nYears later, War has returned to Northumberland as a royal knight, the garrison commander of mighty Bamburgh Castle as Simon de Montfort creates havoc throughout England. Heir to a minor barony, War has made a name for himself as one of Henrys fiercest knights. In a battle against de Monforts loyalists, the garrison at Bamburgh is joined by some of the most powerful families in the north - de Wolfe included. nDe Wolfe allies who see Herringthorpe fight, including de Wolfe sons, swear there is a new force to be reckoned with in Northumberland. His gestures, movements, and appearance are reminiscent of a young William de Wolfe.And the rumors begin. nWhen War ends up in a battle against opportunistic Scots, he is gravely wounded and crawls from the battlefield to stay clear of deadly Scots. He is saved by a young Scotswoman whom he never expects to see again. nHe was wrong. nUpon his mothers death, Wars true father is revealed, plunging War into a world he doesnt want to be part of. He learns to resent the Wolfe of the Border, who left his mother when she was pregnant, and so begins Wars intention to meet the greatest knight in England. Perhaps he might even intimidate and dominate him. But theres only one catch... nThe lovely Scotswoman who saved his life happens to be Williams kin. nJoin War and Annaleigh as they navigate a romance that is as complex as it is beautiful, where family ties will be tried - and tested - and love is the ultimate glory. nIts the original de Wolfe Pack in their prime in this story of secrets, redemption, and sacrifice.
