A knight with no land, a lady with no choice.

Lady Alice de Grey is the ultimate prize in a game of power she never asked to play. As the daughter of Baron Grey de Codnor, she is a fortification to be besieged, a title to be claimed, and a woman whose heart must remain under lock and key. With her father’s health declining and a parade of greedy suitors at the gates, Alice has learned to hide her intellect behind a mask of submissiveness—until she meets the man she is forbidden to touch.

Enter William Sommer: a landless knight with nothing but his honor and a blade forged in the fires of the French Wars. Tasked with protecting the very woman he can never hope to claim, William is a man of stoic principles and amber-flecked eyes that see right through Alice’s noble pretension. Forced into the intimate proximity of the castle solar and the shadows of the Wolf’s Wood, the boundaries of status begin to blur.

While Sir Guy de Valois maneuvers to seize the Grey estate, Alice and William discover a loyalty that transcends bloodlines. But in a world where a woman’s hand is a political currency, can a landless protector become the master of her heart? Or will the secret of William’s past shatter the legacy Alice is desperate to save?


Featuring forced proximity, slow-burn, closed-door romance, and a high-stakes secret identity, Sword of House Grey is a sweeping medieval love story for readers who crave emotional depth and the timeless promise of a love that defies the crown.

Readers who enjoy emotionally intense medieval fiction with slow-burn romance, threatened inheritances, class differences, castles, political maneuvering, honorable but wounded knights, capable heroines, subtle magic, moral tests, and relationships built through trust and shared duty rather than immediate attraction.
