Is it too late for second chances when the girl you loved in your youth comes back into your life? Gerolt de Warenne spent his life watching Cassandry de Reymes grow into a lovely young woman. He dreamed of building a life together, but Cassandry chose to marry another. Twenty-four years later, with both of them now widowed, he hopes he might have more success in courting her. After all, they were once the best of friends. Perhaps this time, friendship can grow into something more? But Cassandry rejects his proposal. Her first marriage turned out to be a bitter disappointment. She cannot bear the thought of spoiling her friendship with Gerolt by gambling again on anything as risky as love. Instead, she pushes for a betrothal between their teenage children, to which Gerolt reluctantly agrees. The day after their children are betrothed, Cassandry finds a small gift outside her chamber door, the first of many that begin to appear each morning. Who could be leaving them? One of Gerolt's knights who hopes to win the hand of the wealthy widow? Gerolt's best friend, with whom Cassandry has a secret, tumultuous past? Or could it be Gerolt himself? Cassandry will have to rediscover the trusting girl she was before her marriage if she is to find the courage to embrace a second chance at love.
Autorenporträt
Joyce DiPastena dreamed of green medieval forests while growing up in the dusty copper mining town of Kearny, Arizona. She filled her medieval hunger by reading the books of Thomas B. Costain (where she fell in love with King Henry II of England), and later by attending the University of Arizona where she graduated with a degree in history, specializing in the Middle Ages. When she's not writing, Joyce loves to read, play the piano, eat chocolate, and spend time with her sister and friends. A high- light of her year is attending the annual Arizona Renaissance Festival. Joyce is a multi-published, multi-award winning author who specializes in sweet medieval romances heavily spiced with mystery and adventure. She lives with her two cats, Nyxie and Calypso, in Mesa, Arizona. Email her at joyce@joycedipastena.com. Visit her website at joycedipastena.com.
