The Right Knight

After her father dies, Annis of Roxley fears King John will award her home to one of his pet mercenaries. Still, she's unprepared for the knight who arrives carrying John's order: Wed the new lord or become the king's ward. If the new lord is anything like his disheveled representative, she's better off -elsewhere. Rushing to claim the castle John's finally granted him, Sir Hugh reaches Roxley looking so unkempt, Annis takes him for a servant. Before he can reveal his identity, she disappears with her cousin. Hugh knows John rejected the cousin's claim to Roxley. Will the knight defy royal decree and force Annis to marry? Not if Hugh can help it.
