Joyce has done it again with this book. I love her writing and the medieval romance gets me every time. Another gripping book like Loyalty's Web. The research is wonderful you feel like you are in France along with everyone else. I read a lot of romance novels here lately and I like them , but when I want clean romance I turn to Joyce. She has a way of brining her characters to life to grip you through out the book. A page turner.
Mathilde is my favorite character. Even though she is our damsel in distress she tries her hardest to help herself. The relationship she has with Etienne is a remarkable one full of love.
A must read for everyone.
