TAMARA LEIGH, USA Today Best-Selling Author
THE FEUD
England, 1308. Three noblemen secretly gather to ally against their treacherous lord. But though each is elevated to a baron in his own right and given a portion of his lord’s lands, jealousy and reprisals lead to a twenty-five year feud, pitting family against family, passing father to son.
A WARRIOR DANGEROUSLY IN CONTROL
England, 1334. In the second book of The Feud series, Baron Magnus Verdun is a warrior whose handsome face gives little indication of the darkness he struggles to contain. While pursuing the murderous brigands who plague his lands, he becomes the unwitting savior of the woman the king has decreed he wed—the reckless Lady Thomasin, whose very presence threatens his carefully ordered life. And more so when she proves outspoken beyond what is required of a dutiful wife. Can he tame this woman whose willful ways ought to offend, but instead captivate? More, dare he allow her near and risk exposing the secret that could push her away?
A LADY PERILOUSLY IMPROPER
Despite efforts to make a proper lady of her, the illegitimate Thomasin de Arell knows she is no match for the Baron of Emberly. Though she expects her new husband will think her beneath him, she is unprepared when he insists on separate chambers. When he also demands she control her behavior, the spurned Thomasin rebels—and unknowingly becomes the pawn of forces determined to further the feud. But upon finding herself in Magnus’s arms, she discovers he is not as indifferent as he would have her believe. And when she glimpses his torment, she is determined to shine light on his darkness. Will he let her in? Or will their enemies use the distrust between husband and wife for their own ends? In this sequel to the bestselling medieval romance, Baron Of Godsmere, join Baron Verdun and his lady as they discover that true love seeks first the soul, and is as easily seen in the dark as in the light.

CHAPTER ONE
Barony of Blackwood, Northern England
Mid-Spring, 1334
She liked to imagine she entered the lair of a beast. It
excited her, though not as it had in years past. But then, she
had tamed this particular beast—clipped its claws and
dulled its teeth. Somewhat.
Hand on the door, Thomasin listened for voices on the
other side. It was quiet but for an occasional muttering.
Either something so bedeviled the beast that he could not
contain his irritation, or his dreams were of such weight he
spoke aloud his hauntings. Regardless, he was alone,
meaning she was welcome—rather, tolerated, which was as
near as one could come who was as disliked as the
misbegotten Thomasin de Arell.
Disliked, but no longer hated, she mused with
satisfaction that would have warranted a smile were it not
best to enter without even the suggestion of happiness
upon her lips.
She gave a quick rap, counted to twenty as further
required, and opened the door.
The chamber was dully lit, evidencing some of the
shuttered windows had been latched back and the one who
more often dwelt amid the glow of candles was better of
body and milder of mind than usual. Though such a mood
presented less of a challenge, on this day and with these
tidings, she did not mind. Were she bored, she might feel
different.
She stepped inside, closed the door, and leaned against
it. The room was second in size only to the great hall
belowstairs. Extravagant, some would say—those whose
lives had few boundaries—but in this instance, it was more a
necessity for one who had once known the depth and
breadth of these lands and enjoyed sufficient wealth to
exploit their every corner. Now, as he was wont to grumble,
his life was lived on the point of a great mountain. This
chamber. In Castle Mathe. Upon the barony of Blackwood. In
the vastness of England. In a world through which he would
never again swing a sword.
“My father—your son—is displeased,” she said of the
brooding man she had left belowstairs, the same who had
unwittingly fathered her while a squire of ten and six years
of age.
The silence that followed was expectant. Somewhere
beyond the floor-to-ceiling hangings that rippled and
fluttered in the breeze that dared enter this place, was the
one she had once thrillingly feared.
“Fiend?” she called.
Still he gave no answer, though what she named him
ought to arouse some anger—mock, of course, for the
expression born of mutual dislike had long ago become
nearly an affection. Nearly, for who could truly care for one
such as he?
I do, she silently admitted what she could not speak lest
he wielded it against her.
“What say ye, fiend?” she tried again, deliberately
slipping into the commoner’s speech he detested.
“I have a name,” he rebuked.
Ulric de Arell, reviled by the neighboring barons who, for
twenty and more years, had been his adversaries. Soon,
marriage would make them his family’s allies.

“When love has fused and mingled two beings in a sacred
and angelic unity, the secret of life has been discovered so
far as they are concerned; they are no longer anything more
than the two boundaries of the same destiny; they are no
longer anything but the two wings of the same spirit. Love,
soar.”

Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth; she has charm and elegance. He’s a dedicated attorney who has never lost a case; she is a flawless homemaker, a masterful gardener and cook, and dotes on her disabled younger sister. Though they are still newlyweds, they seem to have it all. You might not want to like them, but you do. You’re hopelessly charmed by the ease and comfort of their home, by the graciousness of the dinner parties they throw. You’d like to get to know Grace better.
But it’s difficult, because you realize Jack and Grace are inseparable.
Some might call this true love. Others might wonder why Grace never answers the phone. Or why she can never meet for coffee, even though she doesn’t work. How she can cook such elaborate meals but remain so slim. Or why she never seems to take anything with her when she leaves the house, not even a pen. Or why there are such high-security metal shutters on all the downstairs windows.
Some might wonder what’s really going on once the dinner party is over, and the front door has closed.
From bestselling author B.A. Paris comes the gripping thriller and international phenomenon Behind Closed Doors.
