The Wolf
Noble Aislinn grieves as the Iron Wolf and his minions storm through her beloved Darkenwald. And she burns with malice for the handsome Norman savage who would enslave her. . .even as she aches to know the rapture of the conqueror's kiss.
The Dove
For the first time ever, mighty Wulfgar has been vanquished — and by a bold and beautiful princess of Saxon blood. He must have the chaste, sensuous enchantress who is sworn to his destruction. And he will risk life itself to nurture with tender passion a glorious union born in the blistering heat of hatred and war.
Customer Reviews
It’s what you’d expect.
Over the top villains, a heroine that is the most beautiful woman in the land, perfect in her femininity until she needs to be a “every bit as good as a boy in how smart and pragmatic she is, and her father often told her too!” Of course she doesn’t know she’s the most beautiful woman in the land.
The hero is the best fighter in the land and everyone is afraid of him. He is stubborn especially when it comes to any woman that attempts to bend his will. And of course he’s surprisingly liberal and open minded when it comes to dealing with those “beneath” his station— especially because he has one toe in the nobility, one toe in the masses- and earned his place in the world.
Writing itself is okay.
Oh; the cover of this edition of the book shows a couple clearly out of the American West. Did I mention the book actually takes place in the High Middle Ages, during William the Conqueror’s campaign in England? So why the wild Wild West cover, I’ll never understand.
