The Lion's Skin Rafael Sabatini

Since childhood and his mother's cruel death, young Caryll had been bred in France by his guardians for one purpose-to wreak their vengeance on the father who had never known him. But Caryll did not complete his mission. Instead, he sailed for England and plunged into a maelsrom of dissension and revolt that teemed with danger for him-and for beautiful Mistress Winthrop who loved him. But, in the end the hunter failed, and in this case, the lion was generous.
