It is the year 1213 and Lady Angelique Gresham is a wealthy widow who is determined to remain free of the cruelty and control of marriage. Angelique has arranged to buy her freedom from the King and is awaiting his envoy to pay the last installment when her first and only love returns, wanting to marry her.
Sir Guy, a noble but impoverished knight, wants three things: land, peace and Angelique. But it's Angelique he wants the most. She refuses to marry him but he tempts her with a night of passion in which she can realize her fantasies for the first and last time before she leaves for a remote northern castle. But is one night enough for Angelique to find the strength to trust not only Guy, but her own heart?
Passion, hot enough to scorch the icy flints of a medieval castle, contained within.
Awakening his Lady is a 17,000-word novella, and was previously published as Awakening, book 3 in the Gresham Chronicles.

Diana grew up in a part of England the Industrial Revolution forgot.
She lived near the village of Gresham in Norfolk, England where, in the middle of a field, hidden by towering trees, the remains of Gresham Castle lay.
Diana's imagination was filled with the men and women who had once lived and loved in the castle and the bustling medieval communities which surrounded it.
She couldn't help make up stories about them, breathing life back into the people who had once passed under the stone arches that now lie in ruins, leading only to a tangle of nettles and wildflowers...
