The two leads just seemed really similar to the two leads in the previous book. It also felt like a retread of her first book, Gentle Warrior, in many scenes. It's just too hard to get away from the "women as chattel" angle of the times to really get into a story based on that time, unless the characters are completely anachronistic (which these are not). " Another one that I didn't really care for, but again, hard to know if it's the time period (this one is set in 1066), as I am not a fan of historical romance set in the Middle Ages. " Very enjoyable lighthearted entertainment. Overall Performance: Narration Rating: Story Rating:.I liked that it was set in such a historical time, and it seemed well researched." "Very good :) I was glad that Royce finally realized what he was doing to Nicholaa near the end, and fixed it on his own (unlike some other books where the heroine says something and he just turns around for no reason). In a climate of utmost treachery, where Saxons still intrigued against their Norman invaders, Royce and Nicholaa revelled in their precious new love.a fervent bond soon to be disrupted by the call of blood, kin and country! Ferocious in battle, seasoned in passion, Royce was surprised by the depth of his emotion whenever he caressed his charming bride. Resourceful, rebellious and utterly naive, Nicholaa vowed to bend Royce to her will, despite the whirlwind of feelings he aroused in her.
She chose Royce, a baron warrior whose fierce demeanor could not conceal his chivalrous and tender heart. In the resplendence of William the Conqueror's London court, the lovely Saxon captive, Nicholaa was forced to choose a husband from the assembled Norman nobles.
