The Spitfire
by Bertrice Small

They cast their destinies to the winds of desire.

The year is 1483. Tavis Stewart, Earl of Dunmore, abducts beautiful Lady Arabella Grey, cousin of King Richard III, as she is about to marry Sir Jasper Keane. Tavis wants revenge for Jasper’s murder of his fiancée. Irresistibly, deliciously, Arabella surrenders to her enemy with fierce abandon—knowing that there may be only one way to get what is rightfully hers.

Originally published August 1990 in trade paperback and January 1992 in mass market paperback by Ballantine Books.
