Martine de Rouen es una joven dama francesa que, aunque emparentada con la misma reina Leonor, su vida ha estado marcada por ser, en realidad, hija ileg\u00edtima y por el amor desgraciado que llev\u00f3 a su madre a la muerte. Por ello, se jur\u00f3 a s\u00ed misma que nunca se ver\u00eda dominada por ning\u00fan hombre, nunca se enamorar\u00eda ni se entregar\u00eda a \u00e9l, ciegamente y sin reservas, como hiciera su madre. Para Martine el matrimonio es s\u00f3lo una opci\u00f3n preferible ala de tomar los h\u00e1bitos por lo que, cuando su hermano Rainulf le propone la posibilidad de casarse con Sir Edmond de Harford, hijo de un noble, accede y abandona su Francia natal para viajar a Inglaterra. El matrimonio con el joven Edmond ha sido concertado por Sir Thorne Falconer, al que Rainulf conoci\u00f3 mientras lucharon juntos y fueron hechos prisioneros en las Cruzadas, al que lo une una gran amistad y respeto. Thorne Falconer es el halconero del bar\u00f3n Godfrey de Harford, quien le ha prometido concederle sus propias tierras una vez se celebren los esponsales entre su hijo menor y Lady Martine. Thorne, un hombre que desde la muerte de su familia no ha pose\u00eddo ni ha formado parte de la vida de nadie, ha ambicionado durante a\u00f1os un se\u00f1or\u00edo propio. Ha trabajado al lado de los Harford esperando ese momento y, cuando cree que por fin se har\u00e1 realidad, algo pone en peligro ese logro. Desde el momento en que los ojos de Lady Martine y Thorne se cruzan en el puerto de Inglaterra, algo parece unirlos. Sin embargo, Thorne no est\u00e1 preparado para amar, no se siente capaz siquiera de ese sentimiento y Martine se jur\u00f3 no cometer jam\u00e1s los mismos errores que su madre. Y, despu\u00e9s de todo, Lady Martine est\u00e1 pr\u00f3xima a convertirse en una mujer casada, a la vez que, Thorne consigue sus tierras. Pero seg\u00fan se aproxima el momento, las dudas nacen en el coraz\u00f3n de los dos y un sentimiento para ellos prohibido, el amor, nubla sus sentidos y sus planes de futuro.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
