Publisher's summary

"Mind, body, and soul of characters like Jamie and Claire Fraser of Outlander." The Historical Fiction Company

An aristocrat haunted by his sins…

After losing his bride to a hated Englishman, Pedro Daun shuts himself in his winemaking property. Drowning in port, he hopes to find oblivion from his military past.

A girl with dawn in her eyes…

Kind and whimsical, Anne Maxwell moves to Portugal to help her new sister-in-law. She dreams of finding the perfect suitor to give her the unconditional love she never had.

Shadows can taste light…

A twist of fate brings them together. Anne glimpses in Pedro's eyes a yearning for love that rivals her own, but the cynical Count isn't the perfect prince of her dreams. Pedro craves Anne's touch more than the air he breathes, but he is unwilling to taint his angel with the sins from his past.

A conspiracy is revealed…

A false accusation turns them into fugitives. Running from a treacherous enemy, they plunge into an ocean of intrigue. As their passion grows, Anne discovers that love isn't the perfect matter of fairy tales. But can Pedro forgive himself for his past and allow Anne into his heart?

If you love antiheroes in desperate need of redemption, this historical romance will conquer your heart. The Taste of Light received the "Highly Recommended" award of excellence by The Historical Fiction Company and is a Booklife's Editor's Pick.
