EARTHCHILD is a battle-of-wills romance brimming with adventure, secrets, passions, and a love to conquer all.
Born of royal blood, but on the wrong side of the blanket, Richard Llewellyn walks a blurred path between the stigma of his bastardy and the nobility of his lineage. For now, he is a spy, investigating rumors of rebellion in Lord Gordon's estate in the Highlands. Travel worn, Llewellyn encounters a Highland beauty, Branwyn, bathing in the linn. Immediately attracted to her ethereal charms, he swears to possess her at all costs--never dreaming that the cost may be higher than he thinks.
Branwyn has the sight, and reads runes, talents that ran in her mother's family. She believes herself to be a peasant, alone in the world except for one good friend, Brian, who has disappeared. When she is forced to marry the mysterious Llewellyn, she is angered and frightened by turns. But is it the man, himself, who causes her distress... or the desire he ignites within her?
By day Llewellyn scouts; by night he seduces Branwyn, determined to win first her body, and then her heart. Branwyn feels the pull of his power, but still she resists--for she has glimpsed the future and the dangers it holds for both of them...
