From the back cover . . . .
Every so often you pick up a book that captures your heart, reminding you of all the reasons you first started reading romances...the breathtaking setting, the rich passions of a noble hero, the rapturous story of a love that cannot be denied. All these wonderful elements can be found in LORD OF VENGEANCE by Tina St. John.
Set in majestic medieval England, this is the compelling tale of two valiant people who struggle with the sins of the past to forge a love as turbulent as the land they live in. Devilishly handsome Gunnar Rutledge has spent years plotting against the man who nearly destroyed his life. He seeks the ultimate vengeance on Raina d'Bussy--his enemy's daughter--a proud beauty who will be slave to no man. Gunnar sets out to break Raina's glorious spirit but instead finds himself bewitched by her goodness, her strength.
I was swept away by this first novel; I believe that Tina St. John shows exquisite talent--she is a shining new romance star. And LORD OF VENGEANCE is just the beginning...
Enjoy!

Professional Reviews
Kathe Robin, Romantic Times
LORD OF VENGEANCE sizzles with sexual tension and rapier-sharp repartee. The kind of captive/captor tale readers cherish. The lively pace and lightning-fast dialogue will keep readers wanting more.
All About Romance (www.likesbooks.com)
Powerful. Between the hero and heroine, a secret I was not prepared for...and the action building to a fevered pitch towards the end, there was little or nothing not to love in LORD OF VENGEANCE. All in all, a truly wonderful read. (Review Rating: A / Desert Isle Keeper)
