Blade's Lady (Lombards #3)

Only in her dreams... Her gallant knight was a fantasy - or so Anna Tarrant believed. For years, he had sustained the hunted heiress whenever her nightmarish reality became too much to bear. Now, about to emerge from hiding to claim her fortune, Anna encountered her hero once again - this time, in the flesh... Though her cries for help invaded his sleep, Blade Lombard was never convinced Anna existed until she stood before him: beguilingly beautiful, chillingly imperiled. Driven by a connection he didn't understand, consumed by a need only she could fill, Blade was determined to protect his woman - at any cost… Rated '3/5 - Open door' for steam/spice/heat level.
