Fortune’s Mistress: The Royal Rogue She Chooses
Judith E. French · Fortune Trilogy #1
A branded witch and a royal bastard escape the gallows together — and fall into passion on the run.
Description
In this romping romance, a low-born beauty branded as a witch stands no chance if she doesn’t go with the illegitimate son of King Charles II to find his hidden gold treasure but she discovers much more—passion under the sweet breeze of tropical moonlight. THEIR ESCAPE FROM THE LONDON GALLOWS Bound in chains together, the witch and the privateer await the hangman under the Newgate Prison gallows. But Lacy Bennett and James Black are destined for greater things and make a bold escape south to find his lost fortune in gold. ENEMIES PURSUE THEM Grave perils await them as they are pursued by enemies who want the gold too. Betrayed by the treacherous greed of a false friend, Lacy and James forge an unbreakable bond—and enjoy searing passion. This unlikely pair—the handsome bastard lord and his enchanting low-born lady—create a dynasty with their sensuous, passionate—and rapturous love—and their quest will leave a living legacy for generations to come as their story continues.
