Haunted by the atrocities of war, by his years of captivity within Saladin's walls, Robin of Locksley has not one ounce of available energy left to shoulder the burden of a young woman's grief. No longer the innocent young man she remembers, his eyes are black with shadows. The young man she remembers as a solitary, withdrawn youth from her childhood, has grown into a forbidding man with no time for pleasantries. The moment they lock eyes, though, she knows it is hopeless. Marian attends the lavish homecoming the earl his father throws for him in the hopes that Sir Robert knew of her father and might have some bit of information to give her about how he died. And then Robert of Locksley returns home from Crusade. Cut down while on Crusade, all she got was a letter informing her of his death.
Marian of Ravenskeep has lost her father.
