Fugitive Countess

Description for FUGITIVE COUNTESS by Anne Herries:

Young widow Marietta de Montcrief is fleeing for her life, with the accusation of murder and witchcraft hanging over her head. Innocent of any crime, she must protect the birthright of her infant son.

It's not the first time dashing knight Anton of Gifford has rescued Marietta. But gone is the carefree youth who first stirred her senses.... With their enemies closing in, Anton will save Marietta -- only this time he won't lose his head, or his heart, over the fugitive countess....
