Certain that Geoffrey Hamelin cannot survive, yet unwilling to abandon him, Leah makes a decision: she takes him home to Pecham. There she will make everyone believe that he is her lawfully wedded husband. There her dishonor abroad will be a thing of the past, and her father's fearsome wrath averted. And there Leah will discover just how exquisitely dangerous a lie can be--for Geoffrey grows stronger, more virile, and more seductive with each passing day...
