Bride of the Beast
by Sue-Ellen Welfonder

A HEADSTRONG LADY, A BATTLE-TORN KNIGHT, AND A LESSON IN TEMPTATION!

Twice wed and twice widowed, Lady Caterine Keith has no need for a champion. She can fend off unwanted suitors on her own and guard her Scottish stronghold without the help of any man. But her sister, knowing better, sends a make- believe husband—a knight with a battle-scarred face almost too frightening to behold. Sir Marmaduke Strongbow has a secret ambition. He wants not Caterine's land but her hand in marriage and her heart to own. With tantalizing caresses, he will show her how a real champion lays siege ... and how love is impossible to fight.

Sue-Ellen Welfonder's Bio

An avid reader since earliest childhood, native Floridian Sue-Ellen Welfonder spent nearly twenty years working for the airlines before she decided to try her hand at writing historical romance novels. With her great love of medieval history, her passion for the British Isles, and her own Scottish ancestry, it isn't surprising that she chose medieval Scotland as the perfect backdrop for her romance novels. Sue-Ellen lives with her husband and her muse (their Jack Russell Terrier, Em) in Florida. She is a member of Romance Writers of America and her own clan society, the MacFie Clan Society of North America. When not writing or walking her dog, she can usually be found scouring the history section of used bookstores, trying to think of a clever new way to ask her husband to please build her some new bookshelves, or curled in a corner of the sofa late at night, happily lost in the pages of a research book on medieval Scotland.
