A PROUD KNIGHT FALLS...
Renowned English knight Ivo de Vessey officiates at a concert for his liege lord in the nobleman's great hall, but he is barely able to keep his mind on his task. He can't take his eyes off of the stunning singer with dark hair, mysterious eyes, and a voice like honey.

Now that she has known tenderness and ecstasy of being in his arms, she can't possibly let him go...

About the Author

Looking back, I always seemed to be writing something, but the first time I actually thought I might make a career as a writer was when I won the local short story contest.

Suddenly my name was in the newspaper and people had heard of me, and I was actually paid! Probably until then, although I had dreamed of being a writer, I had never expected to make a career from it. I thought writing was a hobby. After the contest win I began to wonder if, maybe, one day I would be able to write and not have to work to support my habit!

As well as writing for Avon in the USA, over the years I have written for Mills & Boon/Harlequin as Deborah Miles. Two of these early books have now been reissued as eBooks (See My Books Page). I also wrote as Lilly Sommers for the Australian market, and these books are being reissued in Germany and Australia under the name Kaye Dobbie.

I currently juggle my writing with sharing an old house and big garden with my husband, as well as far too many animals. Sometimes writing anything is a struggle but I keep trying because I love it.
