Knight of Her Dreams (Conquering the Heart, #2)

Marguerite and Richard are political enemies. For each of them, loyalty and duty war with personal desire. Can they find a way to remain loyal to their countries yet embrace their love?

Lady Marguerite, Countess of Besancon, is fiercely opposed to King Henry V’s invasion of France. When the Duke of Burgundy offers her a chance to work against the English and avenge the deaths of her father and brothers, she welcomes the opportunity. She doesn’t count on the passion she feels for English knight, Sir Richard of Winchester. Nor does she realise that each firm belief and prejudice she’s held will be seriously challenged.

Sir Richard has sworn an oath of fealty to King Henry V, but disapproves of the carnage and destruction wrought upon Normandy by the English forces. He comes to the aid of Lady Marguerite and is deeply attracted to her. When he discovers her betrayal, how can do as duty dictates and present her to his king for execution? Yet, how can he not?
