Lynsay gives us a warm story of two gentle people pushed together by an inheritance. Hugh de Long believe his uncle is forcing him to marry his illegitimate daughter, Willow, and arrogantly insults her saying he will not lower himself to marry a bastard. But then find out she is neither a bastard and that, though he inherits his uncle's Castle and lands, he need the money left to Willow in order to keep them.
Willow is a gentle soul who is ready to forgive Hugh after making him jump through a couple hoops, but she has been warned by her keeper, a witch, that is she accepts and forgives Hugh too quickly, one or both of them will die. Lynsay always gives such warm humour, but Willow and Hugh are characters that touch the heart. | ||
