Otkupnina

Julie Garwood

The novel Ransom is another success from the pen of Julie Garwood, the famous queen of romance novels.

In the dark days after the death of Richard the Lionheart, England falls under the rule of a tyrannical ruler and his sycophants. Against her will, the beautiful maiden Gillian gets involved in the web of cruel court intrigues. As a child, Gillian experienced firsthand the cruelty and inhumanity of the greedy and often greedy Baron Alford. Desperate to get hold of the precious treasure box and hand it over to the future king in exchange for a hefty reward, Alford destroys her home and kills her father. But the treasure will still slip from his fingers.

More than a decade after that tragic event, a young beauty, at the request of a cruel baron, will be forced to face the past and solve the mystery of the missing treasure. Fearlessly defying the dangers, Gillian is relentless in her decision to finally remove the stain from her beloved father's name. She is doubly rewarded for her bravery – in the middle of the seemingly inhospitable Scottish highlands, fate sends her help in the form of the irresistible warrior Brodick Buchanan, the head of a Scottish clan. Having subdued the angry enemy, Brodick himself lays down his weapon on his knees - he does not know and does not want to defend himself against the violent surge of pure love...
