The Forest Lord
Susan Krinard
From the USA Bestselling author of SECRET OF THE WOLF comes the first book in a new series of enchantment, romance, and ancient legend....
Hern is a Lord of the Fane, a race ancient before the
coming of Man. For a thousand years he has guarded his
forest realm on the Lakeland estate of Hartsmere. He longs
to return to the Blessed Land of his own people, but he
must bring with him a half-mortal heir, whose humanity will
strengthen the weakened blood of the Fane.
He chooses Lady Eden Fleming to bear his child and free him
from the bonds of earth. But when she discovers his inhuman
identity, she flees, carrying their unborn child within
her.
Many years later, Lady Eden, once a diamond of the ton, is
a debt-ridden widow with memories of one brilliant night of
love. But she discovers that the child of that forbidden
union, believed long dead, still lives.
Eden's joyful reunion with her son at Hartsmere is
complicated by the proud and insolent servant, Hartley
Shaw. He and her son share mysterious gifts that intrigue
and frighten her. Who is Hartley Shaw, why has he come to
Hartsmere--and how can she be falling in love with him?
