This book was published in January 1985. Schooled at the most elite academies, violet-eyed Llita Darrington-Coombe lived in pampered luxury. Then tragedy struck: her father died and a spiteful, bitter aunt exiled her to decaying Lyss Castle. Llita was unaware how her courageous spirit and her golden-haired beauty unchilled the feud-locked manor ... and the Marquis himself.
