![]() I couldn't put it down and it's worth a re-read! I now intend to read all in the series. But she will not go the path of her mother. ![]() Now back from years in captivity in the Baltic where he was taken in the Crusades as a slave, he fights to regain his rightful place, all the while wanting Moira by his side and without benefit of marriage. Addis married Claire, who was vain and selfish and deserted Addis when he was sorely wounded. She has secretly loved Addis since she was 12 and always seemed to be there when he needed care or comforting, though he was promised to the high born Claire, Moira's friend. It takes place in the time of King Edward II and tells the story of Addis de Valence, a high born nobleman and knight and Moira Falkner, the daughter of a nobleman's mistress and a bondwoman to Valence, though she claims her mother's lover freed her. It is an amazing eat historical setting, well drawn characters, realistic dialog for the period and a wonderful heartrending story of love that overcomes many obstacles. ![]() It is the 1st in her 14th Century London series (see list below). This was my first by Madeline Hunter but I will be reading more of hers. ![]()
