Guard of Six

Sir Torran de Serreaux is the leader of Henry III's personal guard. Known as the Guard of Six, they are an elite group of knights who have a reputation for being powerful, fearless, and dedicated.

It has been three years since the fall of Simon de Montfort and, still, there are lingering de Montfort supporters in England that are being systematically rooted out and subdued. At a particularly nasty battle at Kennington Castle, Torran and the royal army manage to raze the castle and kill all but two members of the oppositionist's family—a lovely young woman and her excitable younger brother. Torran is introduced to Lady Andia St. Albans.

The family of St. Albans were great supporters of de Montfort. Torran takes Andia and her brother to London as prisoners. Henry orders the siblings thrown in the vault, but Torran has other ideas. Keeping them at his family's London townhome. Torran keeps them as his personal prisoners because the truth is that there's something about Andia that intrigues him. He can't help but feel she's harboring secrets, much as he is. But all of the suspicion in the world can't dampen the sparks that fly between them. When the truth of Andia's involvement in her family's support of Simon de Montfort is revealed, Torran must make a choice. Can he forgive a woman he's fallen in love with?
