    Lord of the Hunt
    by Ann Lawrence

    THE THRILL OF THE HUNT?

    What man does not savor it? Whether the chase was for savage boar, political prize or beautiful heiress, a knight worth his spurs threw himself into it once his blood was up. And if Adam Quintin was to succeed at the secret task given him by the king, he must pursue all three. But never did he imagine he might become the quarry himself--unhorsed by a wild boar, betrayed by political enemies, seduced by a simple maid with no claim to power or position.

    As daughter to the keeper of the hounds, Joan Swan was no stranger to the hunt. Like the legendary Diana, she slipped through the moonlit woods with her dogs, her loveliness as irresistible to Adam as the goddess herself.

    Hunter and hunted, lover and beloved, they would come together in a moment as impossible to escape as it was full of ecstasy.

    Ann Lawrence "...captures the reader on the first page." ---RT Book Reviews "Ann Lawrence has shown her versatility as a writer, alternating between a virtual fantasy series and her medieval historical romances. The common denominator between the two is the strength of her heroines, and the courage of her heroes, as they fight seemingly insurmountable odds to grab the brass ring." ---Leslie Tramposch,ParaNormalRomance
