Lady Alice is a great, her love for her brother has her making a bargain with Hugh the Relentless. Who truly becomes everyone's hero. Love the way the two interact with each and the bond they form is wonderful. The credit he gives her for saving him from his past emotionally is great. Funny, serious, sad, it hits all your emotions and is a wonderful story. I've read it many times over the years and love that now it's on my I won't have to re-purchase the book and will be able to re-read anytime.
I enjoy reading about females who have a strong mind and know what they want in life and find a way to achieve those goals.
… and again, another incredible story from the master storyteller. Thank you for hours upon hours of fun adventure through the ages.
This is my second read of this wonderful novel by Amanda Quick and I enjoyed it even more this time. The story has a strong female who is clever and has a very interesting personality but she is not gorgeous or so disgustingly perfect that she is one dimensional. There are many twists and turns and while there is some predictability it is a very heartwarming and sweet love story. Definitely a keeper!!
I just re read this book.

Hugh and Lady Alice are captivating. Hugh is a stoic man whose word and honor mean everything to him. Alice is a pragmatic woman who thinks only logically and does not see that honor has anything to do with jousting and fighting.

She is the very thing that Hugh the Relentless needs and she is just what he gets.

She cracks the shell and defies him at every turn and Hugh gives in to her.

It is an awesome story of love and giving and healing.

Very very highly recommended.
Jayne/Amanda does medieval romance with a bit of spice and a bout of suspense very well. I wish there were more of them. It has been a long time since I first read this one so I picked it up as an old friend, sat back, and enjoyed it all over again. This is a very good author who can and does write multiple genres marvelously. But the knight in shining armour being saved by and also saving the fiesty, brave, smart heroine are some her most delightful. Great entertainment.
Amanda Quick does it again! Another riveting story of romance and intrigue. The relationship between Hugh and Alice, as in all Amanda's novels that I've read, is an alliance of intelligence, attraction and chemistry that sizzles. Her heroes and heroines forge a strong partnership and respect the best qualities in each other. It really makes for a believable connection that you don't often see in romance novels. I love how they work together to not only solve the riddles present in the story but the riddle of what makes each other tick. I love her strong women and thoughtful men who break down the barriers that they have erected around their hearts. Such an enjoyable read with great dialogue, funny moments and wonderful secondary characters.
