The Banished Bride - Andrea Pickens - Mass Market Paperback

Aurora and Alexander have been married for thirteen years-although one would hardly know it. They cannot distinguish each other's laughter. Neither recognizes the other's intimate caresses. Because the last-and first-time Alexander saw his wife was at their wedding, and even then, it was through a thick veil and the haze of drink…Married off at tender ages by their families, Aurora and Alexander have since carved out separate lives for themselves-hers, a chaste one at home, and his, a worldly soldier's life. So when Alexander is sent on a mission, using a nom de guerre, to find a traitorous woman spy, and mistakes the fiery-tongued Aurora for his enemy, little does he know he holds his own wife (also under an assumed name) captive. And when the embers of passion are stirred into perilous flames licking at their reserve, the two know they must soon succumb to their desire…Pickens, Andrea is the author of 'The Banished Bride - Andrea Pickens - Mass Market Paperback' with ISBN 9780451205612 and ISBN 0451205618.
