Winds of Fury, Winds of Fire

by Rosalind Foxx

From the sheltered convent into the tempestuous roar of battle... Rufenna Lyall-a hot-tempered, fiery-haired Highland lass, she was cloistered behind the cold stone walls of St. Whitby's Abbey, longing for the day she would be released to marry a stranger. — Still a child, she rode out with her brother into a brutal ambush. Barely a woman, she was swept into the arms of dashing Lord Hammond, her brother's mortal enemy. Rufenna would escape to rule Lyall Castle, her fortress home... to fight the English invader with wild courage and daring skill... to ache for the man who had ravished her body, stolen her heart, and would forever possess her soul.

good book! the prose was very gets-the-job-done but it almost worked since the story ended up being more heavy on the history than the romance? seriously the best part about this was just how much research was clearly done to write this, and while this had all the problematic elements most novels of this time had; the main character was a fully independent woman from beginning to end so that was cool.
