Lindsey, Johanna, (author.).

Summary:

In 1202 England, when he was 13 and she was 5, they had an ugly confrontation that still haunts both of them twelve years later. However, they still must marry and Wulfric de Thorpe comes to claim Milisant Crispin as his bride, a binding neither one wants. He thinks she is a shrew and she thinks he is a beast. As the couple becomes familiar with one another, their initial impressions change as they see the softer and compassionate facets of the other. At the same time, King John provides tacit approval to Lord Walter de Roghton to stop the pending nuptials anyway he can, including murdering the bride. As Wulfric and Milisant fall in love, they struggle to stay alive from the assaults on her.
