Notorious

By: Kathryn Kramer

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In a world filled with hate, love was a precious thing, a rare treasure they might have little time to savor. England under Cromwell’s commonwealth was oppressive, colorless and boring, but beautiful Devondra Stafford’s life was vicariously exciting. Her father was the dashing Gentleman James, the Heath’s most gallant highwayman. But when James is captured and condemned to death upon the “Tyburn tree,” Devondra enters into a desperate bargain to share the bed of the sensual nobleman, Quentin Wakefield in exchange for her father’s life. Quentin was intrigued with the woman with long dark hair and lovely hazel eyes who was as rare a jewel as ever stolen on the road. He wondered just what kind of woman Gentleman’s James’s only child really was—she who lived among thieves and murderers. It didn’t really matter. He knew that her beauty and feigned innocence stirred his desires. No matter what promises he had to make, his obsession was to possess her. It is a night of blossoming passions, a night neither can forget. But the heartache of betrayal, broken promises and the sight of her father hanging from the gallows, forces Devondra to take to the road as “The Notorious Lady”.
