1471 A.D. - Ten years after the Battle of Towton, Sir Kenton le Bec (THE LION OF THE NORTH) serves Warwick, "The Kingmaker", as the man's attack dog. There is no fiercer knight in Warwick's arsenal than Kenton le Bec, a powerful and cunning fighter. Kenton has been tasked with securing Babylon Castle, a fortress that secures a road between Lancashire and Yorkshire. It is a strategic castle and currently in the hands of Edward's forces. When Kenton and his army move in, all of that changes. Yet things are not always clear-cut....
Lady Nicola Aubrey-Thorne is the widow of a great Edwardian supporter. When Kenton conquers her home of Babylon Castle, she offers him nothing but resistance and hatred. Kenton sees a beautiful, spoiled woman who fights him on every turn, yet the spark of attraction is there. It has been since the beginning. As Kenton comes to learn the darker secrets of Babylon, he comes to understand Lady Thorne and her sorrows. And his attraction towards her grows beyond his control.
Join Kenton and Nicola in a world of opposing loyalties yet united attraction. Their lives become irrevocably intertwined even if their loyalties to the men who would be king differ. The passion they feel for one another, and the love, is something few people ever experience. It is a complicated and complex situation, one where difficult decisions must be made if Kenton and Nicola are to remain together.
When Kenton is captured by enemy soldiers, Nicola must do all she can to save the man who she once considered her enemy. Will she be too late?

ent rankings are as follows:
“Another old pile of rocks,” he said as he pulled into the tree-shrouded car park and they could see the castle ruins across the road. “Seriously, another old pile of rocks?”
The wife ignored his comment for the most part. “Yes, another old pile of rocks,” she said as she opened the door and climbed out. “This is the last one for the day so you’ll be spared any further misery after this.”
The husband sighed heavily as he turned the car off and took the keys, climbing out of the car with far less enthusiasm than his wife. Already, she was standing at the end of the car park, looking at the ruins across the small road. The day had been misty and foggy for the most part but at this time in the afternoon, the gloom had lifted slightly. Still, it was rather cold and eerie, and exploring derelict old castles on a day like this was particularly spooky. The husband shut the car door and locked the car, making a face of utter and complete displeasure as he walked up behind his wife.
“Okay, so what’s so great about this one that we haven’t seen with the four other piles of rocks we’ve visited today?” he asked as they crossed the road to the ruins. “I’ll be completely honest when I say they all look alike to me.”
The wife didn’t look at him as she spoke.“And I’ll be completely honest when I say that any more honesty from you and I’m going to find some dark, dank dungeon and leave you there.”
The husband eyed the wife; he was a little taller than she was, and stronger, but she could fight dirty in certain situations. More than that, he believed her. After all, he had been complaining quite a lot about the old castles she wanted to visit, but as a seventh-grade history teacher from California, things like old castles and old buildings and museums fascinated her.
