Résumé
"When Christopher Heron's favourite and much loved sister, Meg, marries Sir Robert Drakelon, against her family's wishes, Christie makes a vow to be there for her whenever she needs him. Meg's dreams of an idyllic married life are shattered almost… immediately. Innocent and naïve, she accepts the ways of her husband and soon falls pregnant. In desperation, she reaches out to Christie, hoping he fulfils the vow he once made her. Despite his inexperience, Ambitious Christie has just secured a position in the services of the Duke of Gloucester, Richard Plantegenet. When Meg's cry for help reaches him, Christie is torn between keeping his vow or embarking upon a potentially victorious achievement over the Scots. Split between honouring his commitment to Meg and forfeiting the good will of the Duke, Christie pegs Meg's concerns down to her pregnancy and continues with the army. A mistake that will cost him a great deal.... Will Christie learn from his errors and find a way to put his ambitions to the side for once?" -- Provided by publisher
