Chronicle In Favor Of Books Lady Gallant ( European Renaissance Duo #1)
AN INNOCENT TEMPTRESSThe ladies of the palace called Nora Becket "mouse." But beneath her shy, artless ways hid the heart of a lioness. A daring spy in Queen Mary's court, she risked her life to rescue the innocent from a terrible fate. Yet it was Nora who needed rescuing when cutthroats attacked her--and when Christian de Rivers, a lusty, sword-wielding rogue, swept her out of harm's way ... and into his arms.
A BOLD ADVENTURER
As magnificent and mesmerizing as a hawk, Christian both frightened and excited Nora, even as he pursued her with a single-minded passion that left her longing to be caught. Yet soon she would discover that she had reason to be frightened. For the dashing nobleman had his own secrets to keep, his own enemies to rout--and his own brand of vengeance for a wide-eyed beauty whom he loved only too well....

Read this years back and I still think one of the best grovelling by hero books!
This was a really difficult read for me,i only gave 2 stars is one star for the mystery-suspense part and second for the grovelling The way hubby treated his wife was really hard for me to read,sleeping with OW woman in front of his wife and purposely doing it next to the room of her and making loads of noises so that she comes and sees he is doing it with them and also in one scene he says "Just don't stand there i have to finish what i started and ask her to close the door if she is getting
Best grovelling ever...
I don't often read books about the Tudor period, but I am so glad I relied on the rave reviews and picked this one up. Also, this is about the reign of Mary, which has received a lot less literary attention than Henry and Elizabeth. The historical research was absolutely first class but it never felt like an information dump or history lesson. It was a seamless, but integral, part of the story.I wasn't sure if I would like this book. The beginning is a little confusing, and it was unclear at
Ahhhhh. There is no satisfaction quite like the satisfaction gained when a heroine is deeply, grossly, hideously wronged by the Hero, having the Hero realize he's made a colossal mistake, and then watching him reap every scrap of anguish he's sown. I feel a perverse anticipation every time I read an HP where the Hero treats the heroine in an unforgivably horrible manner, because I'm hoping for the the exquisite justice of a perfect comeuppance to follow. Too often I'm let down, but this book did
I was so excited to read this book! It is set in the Tudor era and if you are reading this book PLEASE read Robinson's introduction. It gives a nice "back drop" to the story and describes what was going on in England during that time. It was very interesting. Then the book started. This is a case of "too little too late". Christian de Rivers is not a nice man. He has been through a lot in his life, but he is a mean and nasty man. Not my kind of hero material. The heroes I love don't have to be
