  THE BARON

  AVAILABLE NOW

  FROM BANTAM BOOKS.

  Follow this award-winning author to

  thirteenth-century England, where a

  recent widow of a Norman knight, Lady

  Jane Neville, resolves to use her position

  and her husband’s wealth to alleviate the

  suffering of the common people. With the

  newfound freedom of her social position,

  she is able to make their cause her own—

  until one man steps in her way. Not only

  is the new sheriff a threat to her mission,

  but he endangers the one thing she’s

  sworn never to surrender … her heart.

  Furious to learn that the notorious outlaw

  Robin Hood has renewed his nefarious

  activities in Nottingham and Lincolnshire,

  Sir Tré sets out to find and destroy the

  rebel and his loyal bandits. He must

  restore peace to the region or face the

  consequences from the king who

  appointed him … and the last thing he

  needs is the beautiful, intelligent—and

  willful—distraction of Lady Jane. Little

  does he know that he will soon be forced

  to choose between his life and saving the

  woman whose cause he set out to

  destroy—even as she’s ignited the passion

  in his soul.
