Loyal Heart (The Von Wolfenberg Dynasty #1)
“Breathless, heart pounding, she joined her family in the receiving line as guests began to arrive. She ate and laughed and sang and danced along with everyone else at the banquet, but her thoughts were never far from the man who lay injured in a nearby chamber.
She didn’t understand why he had become important to her; she’d known him only a few days. It seemed she’d been afflicted with what her mother and father called love at first sight.
She’d always thought they exaggerated the depth of the...ir feelings when they’d first met. Caught up in a maelstrom of fear, desire, and yearning, she now knew differently.
Her parents too had tried to deny their attraction to each other, but obviously that hadn’t been successful.
Of course, there was scant chance Brandt would have feelings for her, although she’d sensed he was attracted to her at the waterfall. However, they were on opposite sides of a sometimes deadly rivalry, and confident men of the world weren’t interested in silly girls who fretted over a lame horse. The healer had earlier declared her belief that Brandt would survive his injuries.MoreLess
