Philippa de Beauchamp, as impulsive as she was beautiful, fled her father's castle when she heard she was to wed the repellant Baron de Bridgeport. But her daring escape in a wool wagon became a misadventure when she landed in the arms of Dienwald de Fortenberry, a rogue as smooth and bold as Aquitaine wine. Soon Philippa found herself a prisoner at Dienwald's castle - a place where there were mysteries to be solved, villains to be bested, and a very stubborn man's heart to be won.
