The second of a trilogy. My favorite is the third: Enchanted. This one I could barely make myself get through. The heroine is spineless and the hero is incredibly nasty to her for the vast majority of the book. It's truly shocking how badly he treats her and how she just takes it. It's a testament to how good the other two books are that I even got to the final page of this book. The only reason to read this book is to understand the plot points for the third book. ( )

Clever and interesting historical fiction. ( )

The second in Lowell's trilogy set in the Disputed Lands (I'm guessing somewhere between northern England and Scotland) during the time of the Crusades. This novel follows the meeting of Amber the Untouched and Duncan the Hammer. Neither is what they seem and both are bound by ties that go deep. Their relationship is sometimes painful and heart-breaking to follow, but if you enjoy Lowell you'll love this one.

I read this along time ago but when it came time to reread, it didn't stand up so well. Trite, silly, unbelievable. Not especially intense or romantic. I love medieval romances. This is not one of the better ones. It says 2003 but I read long ago, so it's a reprint of sorts ( )
