All Rosemary and Gustav want to do is stay inside and love their seductive rescuers but their spouses form a dangerous rivalry. When Rosemary's husband takes out his frustrations on her he drives her to seek comfort in the hospitable home--and unusual marriage--of King Gustav.</p><p><br></p><p>Treasonous plots and secret alliances threaten the fragile new stability of the kingdom and so does the earthy magic of the land itself.</p>
