Description: The only way Burke Fitzgavin can rectify his misdeeds against his sister-in-law, an Irish princess, is to fulfill her quest. His mission: to scour Ireland's countryside in search of his long-lost love, Alys. He finds Alys living with her blustery aunt and uncle and their two, less-than-attractive, daughters. Unbeknownst to him, Alys has been living in disgrace as a servant since she and Burke had been caught in a compromising position years before when they first met. Holding Burke responsible for her misfortune, Alys refuses to even speak with him as she will not risk further humilation at his hands. But Burke is determined to make Alys his bride -- an impossible feat, he realizes, because her aunt and uncle will not allow him to court her as they are looking to make Burke a son-in-law for one of their two homely daughters. The quest then becomes one of finding husbands for the other girls if Burke is to have a happily ever after with his lovely Alys.

"The Damsel" is an enchanting and deeply romantic Cinderella story sure to make readers laugh, sigh and want to read it all over again.
