Author Note

Forbidden Night with the Warrior is the first in a new series inspired by Indecent Proposal. When Rosamund de Courcy falls in love with Warrick de Laurent as a maiden her father forbids a union between them. The star-crossed lovers try to wed in secret, but Rosamund is forced to marry another man.

In this book I wanted to explore the idea of what might happen if a dying lord desperately needed an heir and offered a night with his wife to the man she’d always loved. It’s a story about second chances and wanting to right the wrongs of the past. And then, too, there is the question of which marriage was real…

Look for the second book in this series, Forbidden Night with the Highlander, which tells the story of Rhys de Laurent and Lianna MacKinnon.

To Barb Massabrook, a bright spirit with a ready smile, a love for Scotland, and gorgeous men in kilts. You are one of the nicest women I’ve ever met, and I am so glad to call you my friend. As you fight this battle, know that we are with you always.

Chapter One

England—1174

‘You cannot ask this of me.’ Rosamund de Courcy stared at her husband in disbelieving shock. ‘It is a sin.’

Alan de Courcy, the Baron of Pevensham, leaned back against the pillow of their bed. His brown hair hung limply against his face, and his grey eyes were shielded with unending pain. He had grown weaker over the past three months, and though Rosamund prayed each night for his recovery, the shadow of death lingered over him. It terrified her to imagine him gone, for he had been a true friend through her darkest nightmares.

Now he wanted her to lie with another man to conceive the child they so desperately needed. The very idea was unthinkable.

‘We need an heir, ma petite. And I am incapable of giving you one.’ Her husband spoke of the proposition as if it were a business arrangement. ‘I will not let my brother inherit everything I have built. Owen would ruin Pevensham within a year.’

Rosamund paced before the hearth, her heart racing at the very thought of Alan’s command. How could he even imagine she would betray him in that way? She was a woman of honour, not an unfaithful wife.

Whispers of guilt pulled at her conscience, reminding her of the mistakes she had made as a young woman. But Alan knew nothing of them, and she had always been true to him during their marriage. She had paid the price for her sins, but the heartbreak haunted her still.

‘I have been nothing but loyal to you,’ she insisted to Alan. ‘For three years, I have obeyed you. Why would you ask this of me?’
