By Possession

A piognant, passionate medieval romance from a major new talent. When Addis de Valence returns to England eight years after he was believed killed in the Crusades, he must take on the beautiful young "bondswoman" who has been raising his motherless son. Addis feels a fierce passion toward Moira, this woman who, by medieval law, he believes he owns and can do with as he likes. But Moira claims to be a free woman, and she knows that if she fives in to Addis, she will be his enslaved mistress for the rest of her life-a price she is not willing to pay.
