Erotic Romance /Historical

A wicked baron has kidnapped Lady Jocelyn, a gently reared girl who wishes to take her vows as a nun.  Thrown in the dungeon to await her ransom, she is frightened of the dark and the unknown.  It is only the disembodied voice of a fellow prisoner that keeps her from going insane with fear.

Sir Alard has spent months in this loathsome dungeon, filled with regret for the life he feels he has wasted.  He is due to be hanged in the morning by the baron, who also happens to be his uncle.  When he hears the sweet voice of a woman in the next cell, he is sure he is the one going insane.

The two spend the night together, with a wall between them but a connection is made.  Sir Alard can’t believe a passionate woman like her belongs in a convent so he takes her on a voyage of self-discovery to show her what she would be missing. In the morning everything changes, and Jocelyn and Alard have a chance to spend time together without a wall between them.  Jocelyn is convent bound and Alard must convince her that their one night together could extend to a lifetime.  

While I have read Historical Romances before they are not my favorite genre. However, this book I really liked for it caught my attention with the fun title.  The by-play between Jocelyn and Alard as they get to know each other is warm and light-hearted while the passion and romance is sweet and sensual.  Ms. Winn has penned a wonderful romantic story, and I look forward to reading others by her.
