Publisher Description
From Lynn Kurland, the New York Times bestselling author of the Nine Kingdom series.
Set near the Scottish border at a rugged castle on the edge of the sea, this is the story of a courageous lord who lost everything he held dear. Of a strong young woman willing to sacrifice everything for happiness. Two lost souls who find in each other a reason to live again, to laugh again, and to love for the first time...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this character-driven medieval romance that transcends category, Kurland (Stardust of Yesterday) spins a sometimes magical, sometimes uproariously funny, sometimes harsh and brutal tale of two people deeply wounded in body and soul who learn to love and trust each other. Knight Christopher, Dragon of Blackmour, honors a friend's dying wish and marries his pitiable sister. Christopher doesn't care who he marries; in fact, since losing his sight, he doesn't care about much of anything. His bride, Gillian of Warewick, is a frightened child-woman with no sense of self-worth, as her father's beaten it out of her. To the author's credit, no deus ex machina appears to heal these lovers; neither has she chosen to tell another version of Beauty and the Beast. Savor every word; this one's a keeper.
Customer Reviews
One of my Favorites
I enjoyed the storyline of this novel. Lynn Kurland brings the adventure of the past into her romance by keeping it exciting. She is a true storyteller. She paints a beautiful setting and it's hard not to fall in love with her characters.
Romance
An excellent love story! You have Gillian and Nicholas meet and with many ups and downs. True love finds a way among all the action, mystery with an super dose of humor! Let’s not forget the witches, Jason and especially Colin. Such an interesting mixture of characters who go through many things as a family. I do recommend this book!
My favorite!
I've read and re-read this probably a dozen times over the years. I just love the whole atmosphere, setting, characters and story line! My copy is getting very worn!
