Available for the first time as an eBook--from USA Today bestselling author, Linda Needham, a "passionate, heart-wrenching tale of honor and justice, loyalty and betrayal, and love and forgiveness" (Romantic Times.)
To honor a deathbed promise to her foster father, Kailey Hewett must marry Simon Rutledge, the king’s sheriff—a darkly forbidding, mystery of a man. As they ride away from her home and all she holds dear, Kailey wonders how she can keep her pledge to give this stern man his “heart’s peace”-but she vows to create a new family, no matter what it takes.
Simon had intended this marriage as private penance for his still-secret role in the long-ago conspiracy against her father that led to the man’s execution for treason. But her generous heart draws him as surely as it does a family of endearing misfits and soon he finds himself yearning for her forgiveness, yet barred by his own harsh code of justice from accepting the love she offers so freely. But the small, lion-hearted woman soon teaches the stunningly resistant man that mercy is as important as justice-and love and forgiveness can heal all.
