When Carys is married off to an ageing widower, she has no choice but to make the best of it. Jone Farmer has offered a high bride-price - and Carys's father is a greedy man.

And when an encounter with the Wayfarers gives Carys the chance to turn her fantasy into something far more real, the temptation is too great to resist. The fulfilment of Carys's desperate wish is heady wine - but with it comes a second and far more dangerous temptation. If she yields to it, it could lead her on a journey to her heart's ultimate desire. Or to her soul's ultimate destruction...
