1183 A.D., Heian Period, Northern Japan

Miku had only experienced adventure and love in the verses that freed her mind and soul, poetry her uncle disparaged as improperly sensual for a noblewoman’s pen. That changed when her uncle left her alone, with his samurai warrior Takeshi to protect her. Never before had a man looked at her with such unveiled desire. The heat of the virile warrior’s gaze kindled exciting new sensations within Miku—cravings that only grew stronger with his forbidden kiss…

About the Author

Born on the Mississippi delta in the heart of Dixie, ASHLEY RADCLIFF grew up steeped in the rich story-telling traditions of the South, where personalities (and hair!) are bigger than life and setting is a character unto itself.

A journalist father encouraged her early proclivity for creative writing, and a mother whose job required extensive international travel helped pave the way for Ashley’s appreciation for flavorful, exotic locales.

After graduating college with a Bachelor’s degree in English and history and a Master’s degree in literature, Ashley taught high school English before stepping into the fast-paced world of corporate communications.

Still involved in the fields of marketing, advertising, and public relations, Ashley has also finally found time to pursue her first love: writing fiction. Now settled in a small Appalachian town, she draws creative inspiration from the untamed landscape of the Smoky Mountain foothills.

When not writing, Ashley enjoys hiking and kayaking, and she’s often found in the kitchen cooking for family and friends.

Dear Reader,

Welcome to the opulent world of medieval Japan, where wealth dictates power and social castes are absolute. Here, the land’s untamed natural beauty stands in stark contrast to highly ritualized rules of courtship, and an elite few rule the impoverished masses with sword and bow.

In this complex feudal realm blossoms a tenderhearted yet spirited poetess, Miku. Orphaned and alone, she dreams of a love that transcends the oppressive structure of her warlord uncle’s luxurious, yet intolerably restrictive, country estate.

Though Miku’s journey occurs in a distant land veiled by mystery and beauty, I believe you will find her hopes and dreams intimately familiar. And please join me for future adventures in other equally exotic, sensual locales!

With love,

Ashley Radcliff

To my Favorite, who reminded me of all that I’d forgotten and showed me truths I hadn’t yet discovered.
