The 'marriage' was against his will. The woman was beyond his liking. So, when Lord Stephan Adelwood was married to the poor girl named Eden Henley, his fire did bruise the lady badly enough to change her entirely.
Promises were broken, hearts were shattered, madness surged the senses and loss....loss filled the crevices.
And there emerged a slow, chaotic...deliberate yet relentless....and wild but passionate love story where a few spoken words at the church changed their lives forever.
Warning: It will rain a lot in here...please bring in your parasol.
