review 1: Poor Leona is injured in childhood during a game with her brother and Aldwin, and they are parted. When they are grown, Aldwin has never forgotten the incident, and it has made him a better man. He wants nothing more than to be an honorable knight. While on a mission for his lord, he runs into Leona as part of a plot that he must stop, and is shocked that she survived when he had been told she hadn't. As he tries to keep her safe and out of trouble, their desires are kindled and romance thrives.
review 2: I always forget how much I like medieval romances. This reminded me quite a bit of the movie Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves in imagery. I enjoyed the setting and the basic storyline. Though I did struggle quite a bit with the characters. The hero's internal di... morealogue would have us believe he was a compassionate and chivalrous night, but I wasn't totally convinced by his actions. The way he treated the heroine on their journey left quite a bit to be desired. Especially the way he constantly accused her of tempting him, making it her fault he couldn't keep his hands off her. At first I understood the heroine's attraction to him, but as the story progressed I started thinking she was suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. I didn't really believe she fell in love with the hero based on his actions, but more because he was her captive. There were parts I enjoyed, however, so this wasn't a total loss. On their own the characters were wonderful, it was just when they got together that I didn't believe in their actions and reactions. less
