SING ME HOME
By Lisa Ann Verge
Bay Street Press


SUMMARY:  Blessed with an angel’s voice, Maura of Killeigh escapes from a convent determined to join a band of traveling players.  They’ll be her protection on the roads while she searches for the parents who abandoned her at birth.  But once face-to-face with the seductive, sinfully handsome vagabond who rules the troupe, Maura wonders if she wouldn’t be safer traveling alone.


  
Killeigh, Ireland
The Year of Our Lord 1307 


When Maura finally found the man she was looking for, he was stretched across a woman’s lap, his fingers lost in her cleavage.

She stumbled to a full stop outside the campsite, still hidden in the trees, and tightened her grip on the basket slung across her shoulder. She felt as if she’d just come upon the sort of scene painted in the pages of the Abbess’s Bible, full of wild-eyed demons and half-dressed women and long-tongued satyrs dancing around a woodland fire.

Stop.

She took a breath so deep that her surcoat tightened across her breasts. Certainly the great wide world and all the people in it couldn’t be as dangerous or wicked as the Abbess always insisted.  In any case, it was too late to turn back.  She hadn’t escaped the convent only to lose courage now....
