Publisher's Summary

‘A thrilling, heart-stealing historic romp and achingly romantic.’
M.A. Kuzniar, bestselling author of Midnight in Everwood

‘A heartwarming tale of forbidden love that captured my heart from its opening page… Unputdownable’
Sunday Times bestselling author Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York

Oxford 1360

When his sister’s betrothed vanishes the night before her politically arranged marriage, Raff Barden must track and return the elusive groom to restore his family’s honour.

William de Foucart — known to his friends as Penn — had no choice but to abandon his intended, and with it his own earldom, when he fled the night before his enforced marriage. But ill-equipped to survive on the run he must trust the kindness of a stranger, Raff, to help him escape.

Unaware their fates are already entwined, the men journey north. But amidst the snow-capped forests an unexpected bond deepens into a far more precious relationship, one that will test all that they hold dear. And when secrets are finally revealed, both men must decide what they will risk for the one they love…

Tropes:
- Friends to lovers
- Huddling for warmth
- Hidden identities
- Grumpy vs Sunshine
- Irresistible heat
- Combat training
- Road trip through a forest

Critic Reviews

"I absolutely adored Penn and Raff's story. Not only is it a propulsive romance that had me fully emotionally invested in the HEA; it is also a gorgeously written historical novel." (Women’s Prize for Fiction longlisted author of Careless, Kirsty Capes)

"Road trips and dagger fights and secret identities, oh my! Denny's debut is a beautifully thoughtful and deliciously sweet romance about getting lost in order to find oneself. I loved every moment I spent in the forest and on the road with Penn and Raff." (Freya Marske, International bestselling author of A Marvellous Light)

A sweet medieval MM

Such a sweet story of forbidden romance, secret identities and longing for different futures. Loved the characters and the setting was beautiful.
First time listening to these narrators. They did a good job, but I did at times find their voices a little similar to differentiate.
