Rakehell
Wildhearne Lancing, son of an aristocratic old Irish family, saw his country humbled by oppressive British rule. While society knew him as a charming rake, Lancing had another identity - the leader of the patriotic Defenders, pledged to drive the English out of Ireland.
Proud and beautiful Antonia Desmond was more than a match for the handsome Lancing. United by their hatred of the British, they lived on the edge of peril and loved with a passion as intense as their fight for freedom.
Into their lives rode the British officer, Captain Charles Carney, determined to destroy the Defenders - and coming dangerously close to doing just that....
