The Raven and the Rose

Her hair was black and silk against her ivory skin; her gray eyes burned with opal fire.  The love child of King Edward IV, Roseanna was pledged to her father's most prized warrior.  He was dark, strong, and commanding, and in the bedchamber, where he forced her to honor her marriage vows, she learned not to crave his intoxicating touch.  And still she swore not to love him even as she surrendered to the dark rapture of...the Raven.
