Mary's spartan upbringing and rigorous training have honed her for a single mission - to shield Erik from harm. His mother, Lady Cartwright, devised this final safety net before illness took her life. The Lady had no doubt that Erik's devious fiancee, Lynessa, would gleefully plan and execute her son's death. The only question was when.
Erik seems oblivious to the threat barreling down at him. Despite his years of service in the Crusades, and his intimate experience with dangers beyond reckoning, he still resolutely trusts in the woman he vowed to honor. Even when the proof seems incontrovertible that Lynessa is scheming his destruction, he determinedly holds out hope for her innocence.
When Lynessa springs her fatal trap, Mary desperately races to intervene. Mary's love for Erik melds with her duty to protect him at all costs. Her every ounce of focus is on unraveling the twisted strands which bind him before they drag Erik to a brutal, tortured death.

Lisa Shea is a fervent fan of honor, loyalty, and chivalry. She brings to life worlds where men and women stand shoulder to shoulder, steady in their desire to make the world a better place for all. Most of her profits are donated to support battered women's shelters.
Lisa's works are all cleanly written with no explicit intimacy, mild if any violence, and mild if any language. They are suitable for teens and up. The content varies by series. For example, the sword-wielding medieval romances have heroines who occasionally ward off a robber. While it's gently described, that might be called "violence." On the other hand, the Black Cat cozy mysteries have no violence at all.
Lisa has written a wide range of fiction stories. She has twelve medieval romances, three modern murder mystery novels, four sci-fi adventures, three Scottish regency time travel romances, three dystopian stories, two 1800s-era black-Indian novellas, and two Blackstone Valley mysteries.
In short stories, there's a thirty-one part story-a-day mini mystery series set in Salem, Massachusetts through the month of October 2014. A seventeen-part time travel series. A three-part Biblical-era series. A three-part zoo cozy mystery series. A two-part art museum mystery series. Three standalone sci-fi and two standalone contemporary shorts.
On the non-fiction side, Lisa has written 83 books. There are 13 low carb books, 19 relationship books, 13 on green living, 9 on journaling, 4 on ASP programming, 3 on sleep and dreams, 2 on wine, 3 on wedding and courtship traditions, 2 on Melville poetry, 1 on history, and 11 on various self-help topics like working from home, reducing stress, yoga, meditation, and conquering a fear of spiders.
Lisa has over 500 pages online to help aspiring authors learn how to develop time management, write that book, lay it out, and get it published. Visit LisaShea.com for all the details, and free to email with questions!
