Adam la Nuit of Rivenloch has always lived in the shadow of his magnificent warrior cousins, so he relies on his gift of invisibility to protect his clan. Whether disguising himself as the king’s right hand man, the emissary of the Pope, a withered milkmaid, or a mercenary spy, his clever ruses enable him to steal boldly through the ranks of friend and foe alike…until he encounters Sister Eve.
Eve is a willful and wayward nun bent on doing what she perceives as God’s work, even when it involves deception, disguises, and danger. Bored at the convent, she travels Scotland as a titled lady, a humble maidservant, or a foreign archer, righting wrongs, spreading good will, and seeking her Greater Purpose…which goes astray when she meets Adam.
When mutual admiration leads to something stronger, and Eve falls in love with Adam, she decides to give up her holy calling. But she can’t let Adam ever know she was once a real nun. And Adam, on a secret mission to stop a war, can’t reveal he’s the king’s man. When they find themselves on opposite sides of a royal battle, and a savage betrayal raises its ugly head, will their love be enough to survive?
