Lord of Temptation

Norman lord Dante Risande never met a woman he couldn't seduce... until a lovely slave named Gianelle refuses his bed and piques his interest. So when she's accused of murder, he can't sit idly by. As the King's right hand, it's his duty to investigate. But in order to save her, he must buy her. A slave all her life, Gianelle wants nothing to do with men. Especially this silver-eyed, velvet-tongued warrior. What she wants is her freedom, not to become another of Dante's conquests. But as the only suspect in the killing of her last master, she has no choice except to put her faith in Dante...a man who questions everything, including her innocence.
