Caitlyn was an orphaned beauty with no future — until the rugged outlaw nobleman rescued her from the streets. And now they ride together in the shadows of the night — on the run from corrupt minions of the law — emboldened by the exhilarating heat of the chase...and by a love as wild and free as the wind on the moors. Caitlyn has vowed she will never forsake Connor, her brave champion, her sensuous lover. But to save Connor, she must now betray him. Yet the proud lady can never betray the passion that joins their hearts...and draws Connor into harm's way to rescue his cherished love once more.
By the dark of the moon, Connor d'Arcy, Earl of Iveagh, rode out to prey on the hated English ravaging his beloved homeland. Soon, lovely Caitlyn was riding with him--tormented by her growing passion for a man who had made her a woman but still thought of her as a child--until the night Caitlyn was forced to betray him in order to save his life. Original.

Dark of the Moon
A Very Worthy Hero but a Different Irish Romance
I'm a huge fan of Karen Robards historical romances and many of them grace my best lists.
Dark of the Moon is another great romance and different because of its plot detour in the middle. It begins in Ireland in 1784 and tells of Caitlyn O'Malley who, at 15, has lived on the streets of Dublin disguised as a lad for so long, she no longer sees herself as a girl. When she tries to pick the pocket of Connor d'Arcy, Earl of Iveagh, an Irish nobleman, believing him to be English, she is caught.
Connor, having great sympathy for homeless lads, offers "the boy" a job on his farm with "three square meals a day." Hungry, she accepts, traveling with him to Donoughmore Castle where Connor and his younger brothers farm sheep in the shadow of the burned out castle that was once their home. Caitlyn never considers her feminine gender will be discovered. She is, of course, wrong.
Connor, whose family has suffered under the dreaded Protestant Ascendency ("the colonizers of a once-free land"), takes on another persona at night'the Dark Horseman. Riding with his brothers, all dressed in black, Connor robs from the rich Ascendency to give to Ireland's poor. He's a very worthy hero and, of course, Caitlyn falls in love with him. But there is a local landowner, an evil man, who covets what is Connor's.
This is very well written with great characters and had me on the edge of my seat wondering what the feisty Caitlyn would do next. But there's a turn in the middle that takes Caitlyn to London. You'll want to read it all.
