It’s not a good time to be a woman in Nottingham. I have to contend with oppressive taxes, a sick mother, a cruel father, and pushy suitors nipping at my heels. Even as an heiress, I’m imprisoned by my lot in life.
I’d rather be a man—gambling with guttersnipe boys, free from the shackles of my aristocratic duties. Dreaming of living in Sherwood Forest, on the edge of our estate.
With my hood pulled low, I pretend to be just a man.
I should have been more careful what I wished for.
When my family is attacked by a violent gang of bandits, my dream of a free life in the woods becomes my nightmare. I’m thrust from an imaginative prison to a real one.
There’s nothing merry about these so-called “Merry Men.” They’re savage. Feral. They see me as nothing more than a prize—leverage to use against men who are even worse than they are.
How long can I go before they discover the secret under my hood? What will happen when they find out I’m not the young lordling they think I am?
I must escape their clutches. And yet . . . can I really give up this exciting glimpse of twisted freedom to return to a mundane life of fealty and duty in my ivory tower?
Author’s Daughter of Sherwood is a dark fantasy romance retelling of the legends of Robin Hood. Here, Robin is a woman. The Merry Men are merciless, morally gray, vicious, and they’re obsessed with their fiery heiress. Graphic scenes of violence and sex abound, and I urge you to read the trigger warnings!
