A PASSION BORN IN REBELLION...A LOVE THAT FLAMED UP FROM THE ASHES OF WAR...

LEONIE DE CONYERS - beautiful, aristocratic, her life shattered by a black night of bestiality, she lived in the shadow of the guillotine, stripped of everything she held dear.

ROGER ST. EYRE - An English nobleman, he set out to save Leonie, unaware that in a world gone mad their fates would be forever linked.

Forced to serve a Royalist plot, sworn to flee the doomed Marie Antoinette, they would be kidnapped, denounced, and brutally separated. Driven by a passion that knew no bounds, they would surmount every obstacle to escape France, to return to England to fulfill their glorious destiny, and to seize a lofty dream.
