This hardcover edition of Rosehaven by Catherine Coulter was published by Putnam Books in 1996. Living in northern California, Catherine Coulter is the author of many best-selling historical and contemporary novels. Publishers Weekly hails her for her "trademark blend of wit and romance" that made the final installment of her Legacy trilogy, The Valentine Legacy, "sparkling." Now she again uses that distinguishing combination to brilliant effect in a novel of passion, intrigue and obsession in medieval England.

SYNOPSIS || Severin of Langthorne returns to his family's estate in England from the Holy Land in 1277 to find his father and elder brother dead, his mother demented, the lands devastated. He is the new Baron Louges, but his title is empty and he knows it. What is he to do?

Hastings of Trent is the heiress of Oxborough. Her dying father, Fawke of Trent, Earl of Oxborough, selects Severin to wed his daughter and assume his title, properties, and possessions. It is Severin's duty to protect his holdings, stay on King Edward's good side, and breed children, thus bringing strong new blood to the line to keep Oxborough powerful.

And so it comes about that two strangers are joined in marriage. Severin is a warrior, strong and vigorous. Hastings is a healer, independent and loyal. He believes she should be malleable and obedient; she believes he should be less cold-blooded, less merciless. He inspires fear. But then again, how can Hastings fear a man whose pet marten appears over the top of his tunic and waves a paw at her?

A multitude of richly drawn characters will sweep you through this medieval adventure, among them Gilbert the goat, Edgar the wolf-hound, and Alfred the Healer's cat. And of course, there is Trist, Severin's pet marten, who is perhaps the richest of them all.

With a keen sense of history, plot twists aplenty, including the riddle of the mysterious property Rosehaven, Catherine Coulter delivers a novel sure to captivate and charm.
