Devil in Our Hearts: a steamy historical romance - Paperback

by Lizzie Jenks (Author)

He vows to restore order.

She refuses to be ordered.

New England, 1679

Ruth Turner doesn't want to hang-but as a healer and the daughter of an alleged witch, prosecution haunts her every step. When her closest friend is accused, Ruth rushes to defend her. Of course, the word of an unabashedly independent woman only brings suspicion upon herself.

Witch hunter Daniel Kendrick is duty-bound to root out the evil that almost destroyed the settlement. But when Ruth appears at his door after dark, she stirs an unholy need that makes him question the direction of his investigation. Perhaps the enchanting widow is correct-perhaps he has been pursuing the wrong woman.

Forced to concede her freedom, Ruth picks marriage to Daniel over the noose, even as she fights the desire this driven man sparks in her. Without enough evidence to make a case, Daniel finds himself wed to the very person he sought to convict...and may yet.

But as Ruth initiates Daniel to the pleasures of the marriage bed, they ignite a passion neither expected, and if they can't learn to trust one another, it could send them both to the gallows.
