What would happen if a Norman Lord met up with a Saxon Lady? What if each wanted something from the other?something that was believed to be impossible? A hero of the Crusades, Dominic Le Sabre, has returned to Scotland in glory and triumph to claim his reward: the beautiful Saxon bride awarded to him by the conqueror King. But Lady Margaret cannot yield to the bold Norman invader. The beloved daughter of a sacred tribe of Celtic mystics, she fears an ancient curse that could being further turmoil to her battle-scarred land?and sorrow to her marriage bed. With a word, the Lady could turn her wedding into war.

From Publishers Weekly:

Lowell ( Only His ) opens her medieval trilogy with a fanciful but banal story of Lady Margaret, who marries the Norman knight Dominic le Sabre in the hope that he can protect her Saxon home, Blackthorne Keep, during troubled times. In marrying him, she defies the dying wish of John of Cumbriland, who raised her: that she wed his illegitimate son, Duncan of Maxwell. Meg and Dominic are surrounded by threats: Duncan is poised to disrupt the wedding; Eadith, Meg's attendant, hates the Normans, who killed "her husband, father, brothers, and uncles" (women relatives seem of no concern); Meg's powerful home-brewed medicine has been stolen and her "Glendruid" psychic powers indicate impending danger. Lowell's clumsy tale appears to glorify a system that ranks females as less valuable than males. Dominic seeks a male heir, but Meg's eccentric Glendruid reproductive system may deny him his wish: Glendruid women are not known for producing sons. If Dominic gives Meg "great pleasure" in bed, he will earn himself a daughter, but it takes "great love" to produce a son. Major ad/promo.
