The Crusader's Handfast: Part Three by Claire Delacroix
A pilgrimage to Jerusalem with her mistress has left the maid Radegunde determined to live every moment to the fullest. She dreads the return to routine and her inevitable marriage to a reliable man, so convinces the warrior Duncan to make merry with her while their respective masters linger in Paris. Dancing and singing are not the sole revels in Radegunde’s plans, for she means to taste passion with this man who snared her attention in Venice. Duncan is convinced his own heart is lost forever, but Radegunde’s allure cannot be denied. When he surrenders to her seduction, Duncan suggests a handfast, knowing that even this honor is far less than she deserves. Radegunde, however, is not interested in half-measures, and resolves to win Duncan’s love, no matter what the cost. Will she succeed in her quest? Or will their paths part forever, and do as much too soon?

In this episode, Duncan confesses one of his own secrets to Radegunde, only to be challenged by her on the choices he has made. The pair embark on an errand for Gaston and Ysmaine—will Duncan use the day alone with Radegunde to gain another chance with her? Are they truly alone or are their confessions overheard by a villain lurking close at hand?
