[COMPLETE] Some bonds can't be broken, even in death. -- He couldn't endure another heartbreak. "Accepting her would be a mistake," he said. "She's a human. I can't afford to have her blood on my hands." Gwen looked away, and he knew she saw the image that flashed in his mind. The slaughter. Bodies everywhere. The putrid stench of decay and metallic blood seeping through his fingers and staining the earth under his feet. The small, lifeless body in his hands whose death he couldn't prevent. And whose death he could never forget. "It won't be like that with her," she murmured to the floor. "I won't take that chance." Heavy with sorrow, her brown eyes looked up into his. "Not everyone is given a second chance. Take it." -- Soulmates only come along once in a lifetime. Or so everyone thought. She was his second chance. But her heart loved another.

Lucianna Fabio and Sir Balduin de Soler had each given up long ago on love. Sir Balduin never had the means to support a wife until, now in his fifties, an unexpected advancement in his career suddenly allows him to reassess his future just as the lovely Lucianna travels to his homeland of Poitou to chaperone the young woman who marries the young baron whom Sir Balduin serves. Lucianna harbors a secret, painful memory from her past that has kept her unwed, as well. Now in her forties, she thought herself too old to love and marry until she met Sir Balduin. But love is not restricted only to the young, and suddenly their lonely autumn lives feel very much like spring again. Until Lucianna’s brother appears without warning and threatens to revive the secret that will destroy Lucianna’s second chance at love. LOVING LUCIANNA is based on characters from my medieval romance, ILLLUMINATIONS OF THE HEART, available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other online retailers. ********************* Thank you for reading my first draft of LOVING LUCIANNA.
