The Virtuous Knight (2003)

by Margo Maguire
(#4 in Medieval Brides)

One thought consumed her: escape! Lucy Kendal would do anything to leave the convent she'd called home since girlhood. But never had she dreamed the world contained such danger -- and such desire -- as she'd experienced firsthand. Though Sir Alexander Breton had rescued her countless times, he also stirred in her a sense of wildness -- something he was honor bound never to fulfill! One emotion compelled him: grief! Widowed knight Alexander Breton had gone crusading to retreat from sorrow. Indeed, he was to take monastic vows after fulfilling a sacred quest for a dying friend. But fate decreed he would instead find Lucy Kendal, the brave, beauteous innocent, who needed protection… and needed him!
