Enchanted Ever After

Samuel Noble was born after his father had been tried and executed for being a witch. His mother fled Scotland with Samuel's uncle Daniel. He was raised with the last name of Noble, but in truth he was the son of Baron Niall Dalais. Now over thirty years later, with a new king, he decides to attempt to reclaim his title and lands. He wants to restore the Dalais name and attempt to erase the taint of witchcraft from his family history. The king agrees on one condition: he must marry a bride of the king's choosing.

Temperance Warren is the bastard daughter of an earl. She has no prospects, and no real future. Her father petitions the king to choose a husband for her. She has no choice and is forced to agree to the match. There is no reason to expect anything good from the man the king orders her to marry. He is the son of a convicted with. How could anything ever be all right for her again?

Samuel and Temperance are both uncertain about their lives, but if they're willing, they might find that they are allies and not enemies. They just have to learn how to trust each other, and the feelings growing between them.
